Domaine Matrot Meursault 2019, 750ml

This Chardonnay, with 35-year-old vines, is manually harvested. Whole clusters are pneumatically pressed, settled for 24 hours, then racked and placed in barrels. Indigenous yeasts and controlled fermentation temperatures are used. The wine undergoes 100% malolactic fermentation, aged 12 months on lees in 1- to 5-year-old oak barrels, followed by 3 months in tanks before bottling.

Tasting Note:

Lively, with a core of apple and peach flavors that is augmented by butterscotch, vanilla, oyster shell and baking spices. Almost creamy in texture, with a long finish that echoes the butterscotch and toasty oak notes.
