2022, Maison Benjamin Leroux, MEURSAULT, Village

The 2022 Meursault Village has an effective reduction on the nose that lends tension; there is real complexity here. The palate is well-balanced with a smooth, rounded texture, notes of pineapple and hints of orange pith, harmonious towards the finish with a pinch of lemongrass. Very promising. 88-90 Neal Martin, Vinous (2023).

On its finings, the village Meursault is blended from lower slope vineyards plus Bois de Blagny just under the forest. Elegant white fruit, a mix of apple and pear, displaying more body weight on the palate. The Meursault retains good acidity as well, so this will continue to build in the right direction. **** 89-92 Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy (2023).
