Meursault, Jean-Philippe Fichet, Burgundy, France ‘05
Grape: Chardonnay
Each: £27.50
DOZEN OFFER - £295 (£24.58 each)
Number two on my list of favourite White Burgundy producers. If Yves Boyer-Martenot works his magic by bringing a signature acidity to his wines Fichet is a master of the individual terroirs from which he gets his grapes. A stunning range – the full selection can be discussed if you’d like to explore further – this is almost a tribute to Meursault and draws mostly from three beautifully situated parcels on the southern slopes of the village: les Cloux (60-year-old vines); les Chaumes de Narvaux, just above Boucheres and Gouttes d’Or; Limouzin, directly below Genevrières, plus a little Criots. Sites that happily produce wines in their own right Fichet blend is magnificent.
