In the Glass — Tasting Notes

Tropical stone fruit and honeyed depth wrapped in silky oak, offset by a mouthwatering snap of acidity that keeps the whole thing singing on the palate. This refined Chardonnay reveals a bright, almost saline core beneath creamy texture from 11 months in French oak (30% new). The balance of richness with poise defines this vintage, a wine that tastes like its place — the stony heart of Meursault's southeasterly slopes delivering mineral intensity at its finest.

The Winery — David Moret

A micro-négociant hand-selecting grapes from top Burgundy growers across France. Starting his label in 2000 after years in the wine trade, David continues to source small parcels from trusted sources, vinifying with minimal intervention — natural yeasts, no fining or filtration — to let fruit and place speak clearly. The 2024 reflects careful vineyard work that paid off with grapes of genuine concentration and balance, despite the season's relentless wet weather and disease pressure.

At Your Table — Food Pairing & Serving

Serve this with poached or roasted chicken, lobster, soft cheeses like Brie, or risotto with seafood — dishes where butter and subtle flavours let the wine breathe. It pairs beautifully with shellfish, white fish, mushroom & truffle, and pasta dishes. The 2024 will drink beautifully now and over the next 5–7 years, gaining further nuance as it ages in bottle. A Premier Cru of genuine concentration and poise, this represents one of the finest examples we've found — perfect for gifting or building your cellar with serious winemaking from Burgundy's quieter craftspeople who punch far above their volume.
