2023 Anne Boisson, Meursault, Sous la Velle

Anne Boisson continues the family’s legacy of high-tension winemaking, employing an extended 18-to-22-month elevage and avoiding batonnage to prioritize reductive precision and structural nerve. Sourced from the *Sous la Velle* lieu-dit at the base of the Meursault slope, the wine draws its foundational density from deeper clay-limestone soils and 50-year-old vines. The 2023 growing season provided a generous yield with optimal physiological ripeness, while the relatively cool summer conditions preserved a high-toned acid backbone and significant dry extract. This Chardonnay is defined by its phenolic grip and architectural linearity, focusing the vintage's natural volume into a taut, saline-driven finish. By balancing the site's inherent breadth with a disciplined technical approach, Boisson delivers an expression that is both texturally substantial and structurally precise.
