Chardonnay from Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, specifically the esteemed Meursault appellation. The "Perrières" vineyard, whose name translates to "stony soil," is renowned for its poor, chalky terrain, contributing to the wine's exceptional minerality and elegance.

In the glass, this wine exhibits an extraordinarily luminous color. The nose has nuances of preserved citrus and orchard fruit. On the palate, it offers a silky and ample texture that maintains freshness and lightness, leading to a long finish with toasty flavors and tart jammy fruits.

This Meursault Perrières Premier Cru pairs elegantly with shellfish, rich fish like salmon or tuna, and mild, soft cheeses. Its complexity and balance make it suitable for both immediate enjoyment and extended cellaring, with an optimal consumption window of 8 to 10 years and an aging potential of up to 15 years.

The 2021 vintage reflects Joseph Drouhin's commitment to expressing the true character of the terroir and the vintage, offering a consummate example of a white Burgundy that embodies both generosity and rare elegance.
