Domaine Henri Germain, a small property located in Meursault, has gained recognition for its elegant, Chardonnay-focused white wines from this village. The estate`s origins date back to 1973 when it was established by Henry Germain. Today, it is under the stewardship of Henri`s son, Jean-François Germain, and his granddaughter, Lucie. `Les Charmes` is a wine crafted from six distinct, small parcels, with the majority positioned at the upper reaches of the vineyard, bordering Puligny-Montrachet. These vines, some of which are over 35 years old, contribute to the wine`s character and complexity.

The 2016 Meursault Les Charmes 1er Cru has a lovely bouquet with orange pith, lemon zest and light apricot aromas, floral and quite generous in style. The palate is fresh on the entry with a keen line of acidity, well balanced and nicely weighted, becoming waxier in texture towards the finish with fine length. Very fine. Tasted at the Domaine Direct Tasting in London.Neal Martin1st October 2019

Correct, light nose. Fresh and ferny-scented. Mid weight and good balance and appetising appeal. Not sure it’s a true Charmes but it’s certainly a dense Meursault. Lots to chew on and nothing wrong with this. A good mouthful. Cool and dense and dry. Appetising and with a very serious undertow. Utterly correct and with layers. Good stuff.
