Meursault 1er Cru sous le Dos d’Âne

"The 2021 Meursault Sous Le Dos d'Ane has a clean, pure bouquet with touches of hazelnut and crushed stone, gaining intensity in the glass. The palate has bitter lemon on the entry, orange rind and moderate depth. Quite linear in style with a Puligny-like finish. Strict!”

"Subtle and sneaky in its intensity, this white evokes peach, ripe apple, honey and butter flavors, plus seashore accents. Harmonious and superlong, with a crisp aftertaste of baking spices and pastry."

“Aromas of citrus zest, green apple, hazelnuts and fresh mint introduce Leflaive's 2021 Meursault 1er Cru Sous le Dos d'Ane, a medium to full-bodied, taut and electric wine with a satiny attack that segues into a palate built around tangy acids. This parcel, formerly planted to red, abuts Pierre Morey's Meursault Perrières, and the soils are very stony.”
