The 2022 Domaine Dugat-Py Meursault 1er Cru Sous Blagny is an outstanding Chardonnay from the elevated Sous Blagny Premier Cru vineyard in Meursault, where limestone-rich soils and cooler hillside exposures produce wines of remarkable freshness and precision. Crafted by Domaine Dugat-Py, this Premier Cru opens with aromas of lemon zest, white peach and ripe pear, complemented by notes of acacia blossom, toasted hazelnut and a distinct flinty minerality.
On the palate, it is beautifully layered with vibrant acidity, a silky texture and concentrated flavours of citrus, orchard fruit and subtle roasted almond. Careful oak maturation adds depth and complexity without overshadowing the vineyard's mineral character, leading to a long, refined finish with exceptional balance and persistence.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a superb Premier Cru White Burgundy for collectors and lovers of elegant, terroir-driven Chardonnay. Enjoy with butter-poached lobster, grilled turbot, roast chicken with morel mushrooms or mature Comté cheese. While approachable with a short decant, it will continue to develop beautifully through 2032–2042.
