Meursault Criots 2023, Domaine Buisson Battault

Meursault Les Criots – Domaine Buisson-Battault

Small plot, grand character – pure Meursault finesse

On the border of Volnay, at the famous lieu-dit Les Criots, Domaine Buisson-Battault owns a remarkable plot of Burgundian gold: a tiny 0.4-hectare vineyard with vines nearly 60 years old. Although not classified as a Premier Cru, this Meursault Criots is vinified with the same dedication and precision as the estate's top cuvées. The result is a refined, mineral-driven white Burgundy that captures both the vibrancy and depth of this unique terroir.

Tasting Notes In the glass, this Meursault opens with delicate aromas of white blossom and a fine, chalky minerality. On the palate, it reveals surprising complexity: subtly creamy with a refreshing, saline touch in the finish. The structure is elegant and the balance exquisite – a wine for those who appreciate authentic and refined Meursault.
