2019 | Domaine Philippe Bouzereau | Meursault-Genevrieres

A cooler and spicier nose reflects the natural exoticism of Genevrières with its jasmine tea, freshly sliced apple and plethora of citrus elements. The intense tension-filled middle weight flavors brim with both minerality and sappy dry extract that also serves to buffer an equally firm acid spine on the chiseled and strikingly long finale. I very much like the mouthfeel and this is seriously good.

Producer Information

You will know that there are a number of Bouzereaus in Meursault and all are cousins. All have been associated with the vines, and for many generations – though one of Philippe’s grandmothers was from Chassagne-Montrachet! Philippe cultivates about 17 hectares of vines from Chassagne-Montrachet all the way to Aloxe – but principally from Meursault. You may link Philippe to the Château de Cîteaux – now a hotel – and its associated Clos (Meursault Vieux Clos) in the centre of Meursault. Both were bought in 1995 by Philippe’s father who replanted the Clos but the hotel was later resold – “You can really only do hotels or wine, not both!” says Philippe who has been responsible here since 2006. The domaine exports about 50% of its production – “Although it’s quite complicated at the moment,” says Philippe, “Though our shop works well here in Meursault and it’s been here nearly ten years now, so that helps.” No sulfur is used until the malos are done here. Philippe has some new foudres in the cellar, some 300-litre barrels too, otherwise, the elevage generally uses standard 228-litre barrels.
