Although the village has no Grand Cru vineyards, its finest Premier Crus produce some of the world’s most distinguished and longest-lived Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meursault appellation includes 19 officially classified Premier Cru climats. The best vineyards are generally situated at approximately 260 meters above sea level, with exposures ranging from east to south. Their soils are predominantly composed of Jurassic marl and marly limestone, with localized deposits of magnesium-rich limestone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese soils and exposures allow Chardonnay to achieve exceptional ripeness while retaining the freshness, structure and mineral complexity essential to fine white Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Charmes Vineyard\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharmes is the largest of Meursault’s Premier Cru vineyards and one of its most famous.

The 2023 Chanlins from Mark O’Connell and his team is a stunning young wine, offering up a complex and utterly refined bouquet of red and black cherries, pomegranate, pigeon, a very complex base of soil tones, a touch of nutskin, a dollop of fresh thyme, woodsmoke and cedary oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, focused and beautifully transparent down to its soil, with a superb core of fruit, good acids and grip, fine-grained tannins and excellent balance on the long, complex and very, very promising finish. This is another very elegant Pommard in the making, but it will need its proper hibernation time down in the cellar before it starts to drink with true generosity. In due course, it will be magical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e90-92 points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy (Jan 2025): \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e95 year old vines.
