2022 Jean-Marie Fourrier Vigne Comte de Chapelle Meursault 750ml

Jean-Marie Fourrier is best known for his benchmark Gevrey-Chambertin reds, but his recent foray into white Burgundy has been turning heads - and this 2022 Meursault is a perfect example of why. Made under the Vigne Comte de Chappelle label, this is sourced from trusted growers, then vinified with the same light hand and focus on purity that defines his reds. There’s no flashy oak or overworked richness here - it’s all about balance and detail. Fermented with indigenous yeasts, aged in mostly older oak, and bottled without fining or filtration, the 2022 is precise and tightly wound, with citrus, almond, and just a touch of savoury reduction. The fruit is clean, the structure is sharp, and there’s that quiet drive you only get from serious hands in the cellar. It’s a refined, modern Meursault - not built for impact, but for clarity and flow. Critic tasting note: (2022 vintage) "Attractive flint and salted butter aromas waft from the glass, followed by white peaches, roasted almonds and cacao butter. Full-bodied, deliciously buttery and broad—just what you want from a Meursault—with intensity and persistence. Hard to resist. Drink now or hold." - James Suckling "Jean-Marie Fourrier is one of Burgundy’s most talented and thoughtful winemakers, with a deep respect for his vineyards and a commitment to expressing their unique character." - Tim Atkin, MW (Skurnik Wines & Spirits) Maker: Domaine Fourrier Varietal: Chardonnay Country: France Region: Meursault, Cote de Beaune, Burgundy Vintage: 2022 ABV: 13% Bottle size: 750ml
