This Meursault unites a full-bodied, creamy texture with a taut minerality and concentrated acidity, and that makes it both rich and uplifting at the same time. That richness matches butter-fried poultry and shellfish in cream- or butter-based sauces, while the acidity keeps the fattiness in check and freshens things up. The chiseled, stony character plays beautifully alongside nutty, aged cheeses and earthy vegetables, where the intensity in the food meets the wine's own depth without either of them taking over.

About the wine
Bitouzet-Prieur's 0.28 hectare parcel is located between Clos des Perrières and the border of Puligny-Montrachet, in Perrières-Dessus to be specific, next to Lafon. As you would expect, this is a stony and chiseled expression of Meursault with a compact and clean profile. Tight minerality and concentrated energy give a good aging potential.
