2021 Domaine Xavier Monnot Meursault Les Chevalieres

The 2021 Meursault Les Chevalieres has a more backward nose compared to Monnot's other cuvees and demands more coaxing from the glass. The palate is well balanced with orange zest and Nashi pear, just a soupçon of spice and gently fanning out towards the finish. This gets better as it goes along.
