Nuits-Saint-Georges 'Les Chaliots', Maison Pierre Meurgey 2022
Our second vintage from Pierre, who divides his time between vineyards in Macon and the Cote d’Or, the latter being made in Chateau de Bligny, formerly the winemaking base of Jane Eyre. Pierre characterises 2022 has having “ ripeness and preserved freshness" . He suggests that despite the hot year the wines do not have the same concentration as 2020 - which were more forced because of the early harvest, and instead show a greater natural balance, being made from “ happy fruit ” as he puts it. He notes the wines have gained more body during élévage but retain a fresher style than normal solar vintages. Head Wine Guru Tom's notes are a little brief as an unexpected appointment to taste the Hospices de Beaune 2023 wines at the cuverie prior to this year’s auction cut across our appointment so we raced through these wines with almost indecent haste! We highly suggest you take your time to appreciate them more leisurely as there is plenty to enjoy here. "A stony lieu dit in the south of the commune beneath ‘Les Porrets’ 1er Cru. Whilst powerful Nuits structure defines the palate, a dried flower elegance on the nose lifts the wine. Sappy red and blue fruits and rich earth on the nose, lead to a compact, cedary palate, with tapenade and dried herb notes and a distinctly saline finish." Tom Harrow, Head Wine Guru
Nuits-Saint-Georges 'Les Chaliots', Maison Pierre Meurgey 2023
"Light red fruit with a touch of spice on the nose. The palate features crunchy cranberries, bright tannins, and a mineral backbone, all wrapped in a vibrant, elegant package." Our note Pierre Meurgey is a rising star in Burgundy, blending tradition with modern techniques to craft precise and terroir-driven wines. His focus is on showcasing the nuanced characteristics of each appellation, from the Mâconnais to the Côte de Beaune. The 2023 vintage was particularly noteworthy, beginning with uncertainty due to a sudden heatwave in early September. Thanks to early harvesting, Pierre achieved balanced ripeness and avoided overripeness, producing wines with finesse, vibrant fruit, and excellent ageing potential. Both reds and whites are approachable young yet structured.
