Bourgogne, Blanc, Clos du Chateau, 2022

Another hidden gem in the Ch. De Meursault range is the ever-brilliant Bourgogne Clos du Château – a baby Meursault in all but name and without a doubt one of the signature wines of the estate. Clos du Chateau comes from an east facing Clos in the grounds of the Chateau and is aged in 15% new oak for one year. This is proper wine, replete with aromatic breadth, pears and white flowers, then sleek fruit across the palate, creamy lemon tart and fine limestone minerality. Open and easy to taste out of the gate, but not without energy and a certain inner nerve. Very good indeed.
