The wine
The Premier Cru "Clos des Epenots" 2022 du Château de Meursault is a great Pommard wine that stems from 5 plots of vines planted between 1948 and 1978. The vineyard, facing east/south-west represents a total surface area of 3.6 hectares. Warm and well-drained, these soils located at the foot of a hillside on a slight slope, made up of red ferruginous and gravelly earth on ancient alluvium, which allows the grapes to ripen gradually.
Winemaking and ageing
The grapes were sorted by hand in order to keep only the best ones. A second optical sorting was carried out after destemming. The grapes were then vatted for 15 to 18 days. Pre-fermentation cold maceration then alcoholic fermentation accompanied by punching down and pumping over. The wine was aged for about 15 months in new barrels (30%) and in barrels of one to two wines (70%).
