Description

Limozin sits just beneath Meursault’s most revered Premier Crus, brushing shoulders with Charmes, Genevrières and Poruzots. It’s a privileged spot, and Jean-François Germain’s old vines planted back in 1937 make the most of it.

This is serious village Meursault. The clay-rich soils give the wine a deeper frame than his Chevalières, but the line of acidity and mineral energy keeps everything in check.

The 2022 has density and drive in equal measure, showing off both its pedigree and the house style: restrained, textural, and quietly powerful.

A benchmark for what village Meursault can be in the right hands.

91-93 points
"Satiny and fleshy... broader and more voluminous than the taut Chevalières... reductive aromas of pear, hazelnuts and iodine... long, mouthwatering finish."
- William Kelley (The Wine Advocate)

91-93 points - "Another wine that has only partially completed its malolactic fermentation is the 2022 Meursault Le Limozin, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and fleshy wine that's broader and more voluminous than the taut Chevalières. Offering up reductive aromas of pear, hazelnuts and iodine, it concludes with a long, mouthwatering finish." - William Kelley (The Wine Advocate)

Limozin is another beautifully positioned lieu-dit, tucked under the Premiers Crus and bordering Les Charmes, Les Genevrières and Les Poruzots. It’s a clay-rich terroir that typically produces a particularly intense, mineral, long-lived Meursault, one of the finest examples of village Meursault we know. The ancient vines, planted in 1937, bring extra concentration and power to the terroir. As always, the wine is denser than the Chevalières in 2022, but it is also incredibly racy and mineral.
