Meursault is an appellation from the Côte de Beaune. The vineyards are located to the south of Beaune and cover a surface area of 395,84 hectares. Meursault is best known for its white wines which represent 95% of production.

The subsoil is mainly composed of clay and limestone. The grapes for this wine were harvested from different vineyards located both on the flatlands and on the slopes. The vines enjoy southern and south-eastern exposure.

It is racked and blended in stainless steel tanks, with light fining and filtration before bottling in July 2024.

The 2023 vintage has been disrupted by a capricious wather all along the year. Despite a warm winter, an unstable spring, and a summer marked by heat pics, cool weather and stormy showers, this vintage offered Burgundy an abundant and gourmet harvest as well as fruity and expressive wines.
