2017 Meursault 1er Cru Les Ravelles, Domaine Chapelle de Blagny

This is a tiny vineyard of only 1.2 hectares, and probably Meursault’s best kept secret, among its 1st Growths. The vines average 60 years of age, and lie at the top of the slope, abutting 1st Growth Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault vines. In colour, this is pale, green-gold, with subtly attractive, fresh aromas. Palate shows medium richness, with beguilingly intense fruit concentration, and vivacious aftertaste, very fine (for drinking 2021-2024+).
