Albert Grivault Bourgogne Clos du Murgers 2022 (750ML)

Extraordinary Bourgogne, more like Meursault quality. This comes from the same “Clos” as the Meursault, all of which was historically classified as Meursault.

This charming introduction to the Albert Grivault range has lovely ripe apple fruit with hints of white flowers, marzipan, and honey. The texture is light but not insubstantial, and the balance between the acidity and extract is perfect. The grapes are from the part of the Clos behind the Grivault property with regional classification in the village of Meursault (the rest is village-level). They are gently pressed and fermented in used casks to produce this delightful, good-value wine.—Charles Curtis MW, Decanter
