2024 Francois Mikulski, Meursault, 1er Cru Genevrieres

Domaine François Mikulski is a highly regarded estate based in the village of Meursault, where the namesake proprietor has been producing wine since inheriting his first plots in 1992. This 1er Cru Genevrières is made from 0.53 hectares of vines that are roughly 50 years old, situated on an east-facing slope of limestone gravel and fractured rock. The wine in the glass shows a bright, mineral-driven profile with notes of white peach, pear, and damp earth, supported by a focused, textured structure. The 2024 vintage contributes a distinct freshness and sharp acidity, steering the wine toward a pure, energetic expression rather than heavy opulence. This is a balanced, ageworthy selection that offers significant complexity for those looking to cellar it for a few years.
