Description
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: William Kelley
The 2019 Meursault Les Grands Charrons has turned out very well, exhibiting aromas of pear, green apple, white flowers, citrus oil, toasted almonds and praline. Medium to full-bodied, layered and chiseled, it's taut and concentrated, with tangy acids and a penetrating finish.

The 2019 Meursault Les Grands Charrons has an elegant and succinct nose that gains complexity in the glass, with orchard fruit, praline, almond and orange blossom aromas. The palate is likewise elegant, even if it is not the most complex Meursault you will find. Yet it is seductive and there is a welcome bitter edge on the finish. Fine. Tasted at the Meursault dinner in Hong Kong.
About the Producer
One of the finest small producers in the village of Meursault, the Boissons have been vignerons in Meursault for more than two centuries, and the wines today are as fine as they have ever been in the long and illustrious family history. The family holdings of what was long referred to as Domaine Boisson-Vadot are now collaboratively produced and bottled under the Pierre Boisson and Anne Boisson labels at the family’s cellars in Meursault. The trusty formula of a high percentage of old vines, combined with careful vineyard work to nurture the greatest potential of each vintage, and patient winemaking in the cellars allows the underlying terroirs of each site to take the spotlight in the finished wines.
