It has good complexity. The palate is very well balanced with a smooth texture, lightly spiced with a touch of orange rind, white pepper and Szechuan pepper on the finish that leaves the mouth tingling. This is excellent.” \u003cstrong\u003e90-92 Points - Neal Martin, Vinous\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE WINE: \u003c\/strong\u003eGermain’s village blend now comes from eight lieux-dits, including Les Vireuils, which offers racy minerality, Cromin (on Volnay hill), which adds depth, and Les Pellans (near Puligny), which provides freshness. Other sites include Moulin à Judas—which might become a single release if Lucie Germain has her way—and Dressoles. The newest addition is Les Corbins, a rocky vineyard on the Volnay side, well-known to Domaine Vincent Dancer fans. Vines here date back to 1929, with an average age of over 50 years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003eHenri Germain established this benchmark Meursault estate in 1973. It is now run by second-generation Jean-François Germain and his daughter Lucie. They farm just under eight hectares of mostly Chardonnay vines (with a couple of hectares of Pinot Noir) in predominantly limestone soils around Meursault, Chassagne-Montrachet and Beaune. Most of the production is 1er Cru Meursault from prized sites, including Les Perrierès, Les Poruzots and Les Charmes. Viticulture is organic and biodynamic. The range includes Bourgogne Chardonnay, three village and three 1er Cru Meursaults, a 1er Cru Chassagne and an Aligoté, as well as four reds: Bourgogne, Chassagne and Meursault village and a 1er Cru Beaune. \u003cstrong\u003eBibendum\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cote de Beaune, Burgundy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jean-François Germain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Organic \u0026amp; Biodynamic Farming \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Perth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47483055931541,"sku":"6049","price":244.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260197.jpg?v=1784782906","url":"https:\/\/theheritageperth.com.au\/products\/henri-germain-meursault-2023","provider":"The Heritage Perth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
