"The 2015 Meursault AC from Domaine Ente is another very pure and classy example of the vintage (sensing a theme here?), delivering an excellent nose of pear, apple, iodine, hazelnut, lovely minerality and a floral topnote redolent of apple blossoms. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, crisp and very refined on the attack, with a juicy core and impressive backend mineral drive on the long and zesty finish. Like the Bourgogne Blanc, this is really giving and succulent at the outset and will deliver plenty of pleasure from release, but it is also impeccably balanced and will keep nicely."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
