The 2022 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées opens in the glass with aromas of white flowers, citrus zest, confit orange and nutmeg, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate that's bright and lively, concluding with a saline finish. It's derived from vines just below Les Santenots.

An step up over the domaine's regular bottling, the 2018 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées reveals aromas of crisp green pear, white flowers, beeswax and smoke. It's medium to full-bodied, with more depth and tension, concluding with a chalky finish. As usual, this cuvée derives from parcels that touch Santenots.

This year, there was enough volume once again to produce a 2020 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées. Exhibiting aromas of pear, freshly baked bread and orange zest, it's medium to full-bodied, racy and incisive, with fine depth at the core and more cut and tension than the regular bottling.

Notes of sweet yellow orchard fruit, citrus oil and flowers introduce the 2023 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées, a medium-bodied, satiny and fleshy wine that's livelier and more dynamic than the regular bottling.

The 2015 Meursault "Vendange Sélectionnées" comes from limestone soils with around 40 centimeters of soil; it has a refined bouquet with scents of yellow flowers and honeysuckle gently wafting from the glass. The palate is crisp and very complex right from the start: saline, minerally, a little austere at first but there are lovely walnut and hazelnut notes on the shimmering, focused finish. This is just divine.

From parcels that touch Santenots, the 2017 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées offers up aromas of yellow orchard fruit, flowers and fresh peach. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and nicely concentrated, with more depth and dimension than the regular Meursault, its generous core of fruit balanced by juicy acids.
