Clay-powered Goutte d'Or delivers Meursault at its most profound.
Clay soils make their presence known immediately. Pear and white peach burst forward, backed by toasted hazelnuts and honeycomb richness. The palate unfolds with remarkable depth—mineral-driven precision meets creamy texture. Honeyed notes emerge mid-palate without cloying. Finish extends beautifully, mineral backbone supporting fruit. This 2022 captures Goutte d'Or's unique terroir expression perfectly. Drink now for opulence or cellar through 2035 for added complexity.
🍷 You want to understand why Meursault commands reverence among Burgundy devotees.
Pairs with: Lobster thermidor, Roasted guinea fowl with herbs, Aged comté cheese, Seared scallops with brown butter
