The 2022 Meursault Genevrières Dessus from Benjamin Leroux is crafted exclusively from Chardonnay grapes sourced from the Genevrières Dessus lieu-dit within the Meursault Genevrières Premier Cru vineyard. Benjamin Leroux, known for his meticulous approach as both a négociant-éleveur and grower, utilises older vines on stony, marly limestone soils for this cuvée. This magnum offers a complex profile, featuring a nose with hints of white flowers, citrus and green apple, complemented by flinty minerality. The palate demonstrates a tension between concentrated fruit and vibrant acidity, indicative of the site’s distinct character.
Vinous
The 2022 Meursault Genevrières Dessus 1er Cru is only bottled en magnum. Side-by-side, there is a little more intensity and complexity compared to the regular cuvée, though it is only a marginal difference. The palate is well-balanced, with quite a lively, spicy opening. There’s good depth and a keen line of acidity. Overtly nutty, almost smoky towards the finish, with moderate length. Afford this 3-5 years in bottle.
