Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes Dessus 2007 Domaine Michel Bouzereau et Fils

MEURSAULT 1ER CRU LES CHARMES DESSUS

2007年の酸が支える、熟成のムルソー。

ムルソーが誇る一級畑のなかでも格別の評価を受ける区画から生まれた2007年。熟したシトラスや洋梨、蜂蜜、ナッツを思わせる芳醇な香りに、透明感のある酸とミネラル感が寄り添い、まろやかな樽由来のニュアンスと調和します。バターやヘーゼルナッツ、火打石を思わせるミネラル香は、この蔵のスタイルそのもの。冷涼な夏がもたらした引き締まった酸が、長く滑らかな余韻を支えます。甲殻類や鶏肉のクリーム煮込みとともに。

Tasting note

The 2007 Côte de Beaune white is a classic vintage, characterized by "remarkably vibrant acidity" and "purity and minerality that strongly reflect the terroir" after a cool and humid summer. Michel Bouzereau's "Les Charmes Dessus" typically features buttery and hazelnut notes, a flinty mineral aroma, delicate and elegant fruit flavors, crisp acidity, and a long finish. This is considered a taut wine with the firm acidity and aging potential typical of the 2007 vintage.

Winemaking & technical data

The fields, though not certified, employ an organic approach. Tillage was introduced in 2002 to aerate the soil, and herbicides were eliminated by 2005.

Short pruning and strict bud thinning are practiced, with careful observation of growth conditions and microclimates for each plot.

Harvesting is done by hand, taking up to two weeks to ensure optimal ripeness for each plot.

For white wines, grapes are pressed and barreled the day after harvest. Fermentation takes place in a cool cellar with natural yeasts, followed by malolactic fermentation.

Aging occurs on the lees in barrels (or tanks) until the next vintage.

There is no fixed recipe; winemaking emphasizes elegance and purity, adapting to the unique characteristics of each year.
