DESCRIPTION
Meursault-Les Charmes is a 1er Cru is made from 1.25 hectares in one of the most well-known 1ers Crus areas. Two-third of the vines are 60 years old, the wine is aged in 40% new oak for 14 months. This 1er Cru is a delicate but firm wine showing woody and almond notes. Elegant and silky, it has a gorgeous bright color.
Les Charmes is one of six major premier crus is lying at the south end of the Meursault appellation. The name likely comes from the word chaume meaning “field.” Shallow limestone soils give a wine that is broad and rich as well as intensely mineral. The parcels belonging to Xavier Monnot were planted in 1961 and 1989 and provide plenty of concentration. Aged from 12 to 14 months in 30-35% percent new French oak.
