Domaine du Château de Meursault : Bourgogne 2022

Characteristics and tasting notes for the 2022 Bourgogne from Domaine du Château de Meursault

Tasting notes

Colour

Deeply intense, the colour reveals a profound ruby red with brilliant highlights.

Nose

The aromatic bouquet opens with expressive notes of red and black berries, such as cherry, raspberry and blackcurrant. Subtle spicy touches and a light oakiness add complexity to the whole.

Palate

Round and generous, the palate is seductive with its silky texture and delicately melted tannins. The brightness of the fruit is supported by lovely freshness, leading to a persistent and harmonious finish.

Food and wine pairing

This red wine will pair wonderfully with roasted meats, poultry in sauce, or a fine selection of matured cheeses.

Service and storage

For optimal enjoyment, it is recommended to serve this wine between 15 and 17°C. Approachable in its youth for its vibrant fruit, it also holds a fine potential for ageing over a few years.
