Pierre Girardin Les Tillets Meursault blanc 2020 0,75l

Les Tillets sits high above Meursault's Premier Cru vineyards and yields a notably focused expression of Chardonnay. The vines are more than 40 years old, planted around 350 metres above sea level and farmed with organic practices. Indigenous fermentation is followed by ageing in large-format barrels with restrained new oak, then stainless steel. Citrus zest, white peach, pear, blossom and delicate almond notes shape the nose. The palate combines silky texture, bright acidity and a chalky, saline mineral line. Its long, precise finish feels cool and sculpted rather than broad or heavy. Pair it with lobster, scallops, roasted fish or poultry in a light cream sauce, and order at Vinofant for an elegant Burgundy dinner.
