Description
A village appellation in the Côte de Beaune, harvested in the delimited parts of the village of Meursault. The appellation covers around 447 hectares and produces 95% white wines, which are among the best in Burgundy. Around 30% of the appellation’s surface area is classified as 1er Cru, made up of 19 different climats.
Along with Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, the village forms what is known as “The Golden Triangle”, reputed to produce the finest white wines in existence. Here, Chardonnay finds a perfect terroir, gently sloping and ideally exposed to the east or south, composed of limestone and marl.
LABOURE-ROI
The ideal weather conditions in Burgundy in 2023, characterised by a favourable spring, a hot summer with cool nights, moderate rainfall and an early autumn harvest, played a key role in the high yields and exceptional quality of the grapes at harvest time.
The white wines are distinguished by their elegance, complexity and liveliness. Subtle aromas of white fruit, citrus and floral notes add to their remarkable freshness.
The red wines are powerful and well-balanced, with aromas of red and black fruit, as well as spicy and mineral nuances. The silky tannins add an elegant structure, promising harmonious ageing.
