This wine is golden yellow with aromas of stone fruit, sandalwood, brioche and baking spices. On the palate it's creamy with a beautiful body, balanced with the right amount of acidity.

Notes from Manhattan Wine Company

Village wines provide early accessibility at more affordable prices than the higher classifications so please buy more VIllages wine. There is a lot to learn from the "basic" wines of Burgundy and this old-vine AC Mersault is living proof. Don't miss it!

Certainly one of their top bottlings, their Genévrières is sourced from plots in both Genévrières-Dessus and Genévrières-Dessous. Nicolas Bernard says “For Genevrères the growers have never made a distinction between the two parts, the upper and the lower, Genevrières-Dessus and Genevrières-Dessous. The soil in Genevrères is quite homogenous. Perhaps a bit stonier in the upper part. In the lower part you have 50 centimeters of loose soil. When you plough the upper part you hit rocks all the time.” Véronique Bernard Bonin explains that “Genevrères-Dessus produces a spicier wine, whereas Genevrières-Dessous produces a more buttery wine,” and so as a result of this, they have chosen to always blend their plots together assuming that the sum of the whole is better than the individual parts. We couldn’t agree more as the results with this wine over the years has been astounding – powerful and long, piercing and pure. A true delight!

Tillets is a lieu-dit found towards the top of the two hills of Meursault, a steep site just above Genévrières and Poruzots. If you're a Roulot drinker, you may already be familiar with this consistently overperforming high-altitude site. The rocky soils at the top of the slope here translate into an especially mineral, smoky wine that drinks well above its level. A stunner.

This terroir is known for its early-ripening and prime South-Eastern exposure. delicate citurs fruits, white flowers, white peach and pear, toast, butter and patisserie. It's nicely balanced between creamy and an invigorating lingering quality. This wine will be readily appreciated after a period of cellaring before it is paired with gourmet dishes. Don't hesitate to decant when serving.

This village vineyard is approx. one mile away from the Grand Crus in Montrachet. This vineyard punches above its weight and often outperfoms the premier cru vineyards around it. White blossoms, lemon, beeswax and minerality on the Nose. On the palate, it's vibrant and complex with honeysuckle, lemons, and lemon oil too. There is a riveting river-rock minerality throughout.
