Philippe Bouzereau Meursault Vieux Clos du Château de Citeaux 2023
£53.25
The wine
A classically styled, rich and elegant Meursault with lifted baked apple, ripe pear, lemon curd and toasted hazelnut, alongside subtle vanilla and warm brioche. The creamy palate is balanced by vibrant acidity. A monopole: the family owns every vine in the walled clos.

View all Philippe Bouzereau winesThe Bouzereau family has grown vines in Meursault for nine generations, back to the eighteenth century. The current Château de Citeaux was established by Philippe Bouzereau senior in the 1960s; his son Philippe took over in 2006, after studies in Beaune and vintages in Beaujolais, Australia and New Zealand, and has since been joined by his brother Charles.
Eighteen hectares are cultivated by lutte raisonnee. The range is a Meursault-lover's roll call, including the monopole Vieux Clos du Château de Citeaux and the great Premier Cru Genevrières.
