Critic reviews
"The 2023 Meursault Village is the most structured of these three communal-level whites, exhibiting notes of pear, white flowers and toasted nuts, followed by a medium-bodied palate with good cut and a saline finish."
William Kelley, January 2025, RobertParker.com
"The 2023 Meursault Village has a lovely nose, perhaps the best of the white Village Crus from Drouhin, with lovely yellow fruit and melted butter aromas. The latter comes through on the palate with a countervailing saltiness toward the finish. This is recommended."
Neal Martin, January 2025, Vinous.com
"A very Meursault-like nose freely offers up its aromas of acacia blossom, pear, hazelnut and discreet spice wisps. The generous and fleshy medium-bodied flavors retain good vibrancy and detail before culminating a balanced, long and youthfully austere finale. Interestingly, this isn't as suave as the Puligny or as complex as the Chassagne, but the overall sense of harmony is better than either plus it should age well."
Allen Meadows June 2025, Burghound.com
"Cask sample. Very slightly creamy on the nose, acacia blossom. This is good. The energy runs like a lightning rod through the wine, through the acidity, making the fruit crack and snap with vigour. The attack is full frontal and then it swoops into a circle and fills every corner. Chiselled stoniness but every groove is filled with juicy white-yellow fruit. For a village-level wine, this is fabulous. Touch of cedar on the finish, but it’s slight and doesn’t define the wine."
Tamlyn Currin, November 2024, JancisRobinson.com
"Fine lemon and lime from Drouhin’s stable source in Meursault, a little fuller and richer than the other two main villages, but with a fresh aspect to the generous fruit which works very well. Excellent aftertaste,"
