The 2023 Lucien Le Moine Meursault 1er Cru Les Gouttes d'Or is a refined Chardonnay from Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, showing lemon, white peach and ripe pear with hazelnut, white flowers and stony mineral notes.
On the palate, it is rich yet precise, with vibrant acidity balancing a rounded, textured palate. Citrus, orchard fruit and subtle nutty and savoury characters lead into a long, dry and mineral-driven finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Chardonnay drinkers seeking a structured and layered Premier Cru Meursault. Best enjoyed from 2027–2038. Serve lightly chilled with butter-poached marron, seared scallops, roast chicken with morels or leek and mushroom tart.
