Elegance & richness from Meursault: Bourgogne Chardonnay Côte d’Or 2022 – Domaine Buisson Battault

Looking for a Chardonnay that radiates Meursault opulence, yet offers the approachability of a classic Bourgogne? Meet the Bourgogne Chardonnay Côte d’Or 2022 from Domaine Buisson Battault. Crafted by François Buisson, master winemaker in the heart of Meursault, this wine combines complexity, silky richness and fresh precision in every glass. A bottle that seduces today — and rewards patience tomorrow. 🍋✨

✨ Meursault character with Bourgogne charm

In the glass, a pale golden hue hints at its depth. On the nose, lush aromas of ripe pear, roasted hazelnut and delicate brioche unfold, accented by a touch of white blossom and zesty citrus.

The palate is round and generous: a creamy, silky texture reminiscent of Meursault, balanced by a lively freshness and refined acidity. Fine minerality and a subtle salty edge keep it clean and elegant.

A gentle hint of toast and vanilla — the result of 12 months barrel ageing (20% new oak) — adds just the right amount of complexity. The finish is long and mouth-coating, leaving behind a memory of soft nuttiness and vibrant citrus zest.

Delicious now, yet promising even greater depth and harmony with 3–5 years of cellaring.
