Meursault-Blagny 1er Cru La Piece sous le Bois Blanc 0,75 ltr 12,5%

0.75 liters 12.5%

APPELLATION : The Meursault appellation, located 8 km from Beaune, has soil consisting mainly of hard Comblanchien limestone. That vein sinks into the depths at Nuits-Saint-Georges and reappears here, instead of heading south. We leave the red wines in favor of the white wine hill. This vineyard consists of 96% white and 4% red wines. The best sites are approximately 260 meters above sea level with an east-south slope. There are occasional nuances of magnesic limestone. The vineyard gets its excellent quality partly from its limestone marl. The wines are divided between the ancient Callovian limestone and Argovian marl rocks.
