2024 Jean-Philippe Fichet, Meursault, Les Chevalieres

Jean-Philippe Fichet manages his estate in the village of Meursault, where he serves as the third generation of his family to work the land. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Les Chevalières vineyard, a site characterized by stony, shallow soil and vines that date back to 1930. The resulting wine offers clear notes of citrus, white flowers, and flint, supported by a racy, mineral-driven structure. While the 2024 vintage presented significant growing challenges, it produced whites defined by high acidity and a precise, energetic profile. This bottling is built for the cellar but maintains a balance that makes it a compelling choice for those seeking a pure expression of its site.
