2022 Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières

$159.99
2022 Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières

Latour Giraud continues to make excellent wines, and these are the last bottles we have available of the current release of a fan favorite, Meursault Genevrieres, which is the best ever from this domaine. Latour Giraud is a classic Domaine with family roots going back to 1680 in Meursault, with a brief stint making Marc de Bourgogne at the Hospices of Mersault before moving to wine. Today, Jean-Pierre Latour heads this 10-hectare estate, which holds one of the most significant portions of Meursault Genevrieres, owning 2.5 hectares of the 16-hectare vineyard. 2022 is an exceptional vintage for this wine and a bit more classic than the 2020 we offered, but it is just as good. It's a beautiful bottle of Genevrieres with massive potential and certainly the best example ever here. Stunning juice with a great note from Jasper Morris and Burghound: this is the best buy of the vintage for Genevrieres, and we currently have a great price on these bottles that are in stock.

 

Jasper Morris MW (Inside Burgundy) 93-95 points! "Some light green reflections in the primrose yellow colour. A stricter nose, perhaps a touch of sulphur. This may also appear more backward coming after the Charmes. Then a vast wealth of fruit on the palate and now we see the real wine. It maintains the herbal note I associate with Genevrières, alongside golden fruit at a perfect degree of ripeness. The fruit and the acidity weave in and out of each other. I would not want the fruit to be riper but it is full of charm as it stands, and kept in place by the precision of the structure. Very fine."

Burghound 94 points! "Firm reduction masks all the aromas except an interesting hint of exotic tea. There is again both good vibrancy and freshness to the finer still, but not denser, medium weight flavors that are almost delicate yet certainly don't lack for punch as the strikingly long finale is almost painfully intense. This is bone-dry but not especially austere and overall, one very classy wine. Buy it if you can find it."
