Meursault L’Ormeau 2022 Domaine Boyer Martenot, France

Minimum order: 6 bottles. We sell in cases of 6 or 12 to ensure you get the best deal, best price and best service.

Rich and concentrated fruit. Gorgeous silky complexity. Seamless balance with a long finish!

From the initial hints of peaches and toast on the nose, through the fresh fruit flavours, a hint of white pepper and a very subtle nuttiness, but all the time perfectly balanced acidity and minerality - this is a classic wine from Vincent Boyer. It finishes long and creamy. 
Using 10% new oak to age his wine, he appears to have gotten the balance spot on.

Boyer Martenot have some of the oldest vines planted in Meursault - up to 90 years old - so while this may reduce yield it does improve the concentration of flavours in the final blend. 

Robert Parker says ‘ Boyer Martenot produce some really quite excellent wines …. a floral style with peach and apricot scents furnishing the aromatics … these are wines you just want to drink and enjoy.’

We are big fans of the white wines of the Cotes de Beaune and have to remind ourselves sometimes that there is only 4 kilometers from the village of Meursault to the village of Puligny Montrachet. While both are 100% Chardonnay, Puligny is all about minerality, precision and length while Meursault generally is richer and creamier.
Wines from both villages are of course outstanding and Vincent Boyer has parcels in both villages.
