Pierre Boisson Bourgogne Blanc Murgey de Limozin 2018

Winery Background and History: Domaine Boisson‑Vadot traces its roots to Meursault, with nearly two centuries of winemaking tradition. Pierre, alongside his sister Anne, manage vineyard and cellar operations while their father Bernard oversees the estate’s commercial side. The siblings produce wines of sleek freshness and expressive terroir style, gains steady acclaim for transparency and refined balance 

Producer and Winemaker: Pierre Boisson leads viticultural decisions and vinification. Grapes are hand‑harvested, fermented with native yeasts, and aged with minimal new oak—typically around 10%—ensuring a pure, terroir‑driven expression. The siblings share execution style and rigorous standards 

Vineyards and Micro Climate: Murgey de Limozin is a lieu‑dit just below Meursault village line, planted on clay‑limestone soils with mature vines (~50 years). Its exposed Côte de Beaune microclimate imparts minerality, depth, and concentration beyond basic Bourgogne Blanc 

Vinification & Aging Methods: After hand‑picking and sorting, fermentation occurs with ambient yeasts. The wine is aged ~18 months in French oak barrels (~10% new) with minimal battonage or racking. It is bottled unfined and lightly filtered to maintain texture integrity 

Tasting Notes: Pale golden hue. Aromas of orange oil, wheat toast, pear, and white flowers lead into a structured palate with brisk acidity, stone fruit, and flinty minerality. The finish is chalky and lingering—with hints of lime, brioche, and subtle tropical nuances 

Food & Wine Pairing: Pairs beautifully with shellfish (oysters, scallops), grilled white fish, creamy poultry dishes, mild soft cheeses, and simple pasta with butter or citrus sauces. Its mineral drive and acidity add lift to richer seafood and poultry ﹘ suitable also for light charcuterie 

Service Methods and Temperatures: Serve chilled at 10–12 °C in a fine white Burgundy glass. Gentle swirl upon pouring opens aromas; best enjoyed with minimal decanting to preserve freshness.

Storage and Aging Potential: Best drinking window: 2020–2028. When cellared at ~12–14 °C and ~70 % humidity, it will evolve gracefully, with tertiary layers of hazelnut, toast, and honey developing over time 

Grape Varietals & Percentage Used: 100 % Chardonnay, typical of appellation rules.

ABV (Alcohol by Volume): Approximately 13%
