Producer’s Notes: A family estate for several generations, the Meursault estates’ family tree goes back to 1789. In 1974 Christian took over his parents’ estate, with vines mainly in Meursault, and some of his father-in-law’s vines in Savigny-lès-Beaune, his son Christophe, joining him in 1995. Together they expanded the estate with plots in Meursault, Savigny-lès-Beaune, Chorey-lès-Beaune and Beaune. Today Christophe manages the estate, now totalling 9 hectares.
Grape varietal: Chardonnay
