The 2021 Domaine Vincent Latour Meursault 1er Cru Charmes is a premium white Burgundy crafted from 100% Chardonnay, sourced from one of Meursault’s most renowned Premier Cru vineyards. It reflects the appellation’s hallmark balance of richness and freshness, shaped by limestone-rich soils and traditional oak ageing. The nose is elegant and layered, showing citrus, white peach and pear, complemented by notes of hazelnut, honey, butter and subtle toasted oak.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a creamy, textured mouthfeel, balanced by vibrant acidity and mineral precision. Flavours of stone fruit, citrus and gentle spice lead to a long, refined and harmonious finish. The style is opulent yet precise, offering both immediate appeal and excellent ageing potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a classic Premier Cru Meursault for customers seeking a rich, elegant white Burgundy with depth and structure. It’s ideal for those who enjoy creamy, oak-influenced Chardonnay but still want freshness and finesse. Drink from 2025 onwards or cellar for 8–12 years. Perfect with lobster, roasted poultry, creamy sauces or fine seafood dishes.
