2001 Boyer-Martenot "Perrières" - Meursault 1er Cru - 2 Bottles (0.75L)

Wine stored in a wine cellar at the right temperature and good humidity.

The Meursault appellation, famous for its great white wines, benefits from a temperate climate and clay-limestone soils that promote the excellence of Chardonnay, the sole grape variety used in this cuvée.

The Perrières vineyard is characterized by stony soils near former underground quarries that enabled the village to be built. The plot is adjacent to Les Charmes, on the upper slope of the hillside, a vineyard that produces elegant and remarkably refined wines. In the cellar, vinification begins with gentle pressing to preserve the aromas of the Chardonnay. Fermentation takes place in oak barrels, with regular stirring to enrich the texture. Aging lasts about 12 months, allowing the wine to develop its complexity.
This premier cru has a golden color and a floral, mineral nose with notes of pear and almond. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and elegant, with lovely acidity leading to a flavorful, lingering finish.
