Lafarge Meursault Vendanges Selectionnees 2020 (750ML)

93 DE / 90-92 WA

Fermented in cask with very little new oak to give us this wine with typical Meursault aromas of hazelnut, ripe apple and butter. The texture is fleshy and rich, with a round and supple feel, yet it is not lacking in structure or freshness. The Meursault Vendanges Sélectionées is produced from old vines located just underneath Santenots du Milieu in 35cm of soil. The grapes are whole-cluster pressed.--Charles Curtis MW, Decanter

This year, there was enough volume once again to produce a 2020 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées. Exhibiting aromas of pear, freshly baked bread and orange zest, it's medium to full-bodied, racy and incisive, with fine depth at the core and more cut and tension than the regular bottling.--William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
