Domaine Comtesse de Chérisey "La Genelotte" 1er Cru Monopole Meursault-Blagny 2020

Vin Chicago: 97 Points

(5/2025) 'This almost magical, lost-in-time corner of the (Burgundy) world boasts a unique microclimate, with a cooler average temperature and significant diurnal temperature shifts relative to the rest of the Côte de Beaune thanks to its altitude of up to 400 meters. Vigneron Laurent Martelet and his wife, Hélène, create haunting masterpieces from this remote terroir.' - Kermit Lynch. This single vineyard Meursault comes from a 3.5 hectare parcel with organically farmed Chardonnay vines up to 79 years of age, and it's one of the most delicious White Burgundies we've tasted in the last three years. Decadent, incredibly dense and deep, layered flavors, intense minerality, extremely complex and long - a glorious and stunning bottle.
