Domaine Potinet-Ampeau Meursault 'Les Charmes' Premier Cru 2016
Vintage Character
The exquisite Domaine Potinet-Ampeau Meursault 'Les Charmes' Premier Cru from the 2016 vintage hails from one of Meursault's most revered clay-limestone climats. The 2016 vintage in Burgundy was marked by a devastating late-April frost that drastically reduced yields, yielding a microscopic crop of extraordinary concentration, vibrant acidity, and structural tension. This prestigious site, characterized by its ideal south-southeast exposure and stony soils, imparts a distinct structural power combined with a refined, chalky minerality that defines classic Meursault.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
This Chardonnay reveals an expressive nose of lemon curd, ripe orchard fruits, toasted hazelnuts, and warm brioche, evolving into notes of wild honey and marzipan. On the palate, a luxurious, satiny texture is balanced by a driving, saline acidity that carries the intense flavors through an incredibly long, hazelnut-inflected finish. Pair this rich Premier Cru with classic French butter-poached lobster, roasted veal chops with chanterelles, or Cantonese pan-fried cod fillet with ginger and soy.
Winery Background
Based in Monthélie, Domaine Potinet-Ampeau is legendary for its uncompromisingly traditional philosophy, guided by fifth-generation winemaker Vincent Durrieu. Uniquely in Burgundy, the estate resists commercial pressures by cellaring wines for years, releasing them only when they have achieved perfect maturity. Utilizing rigorous hand-harvesting and patient barrel aging, Vincent crafts highly structural, age-worthy masterpieces that represent a rare, benchmark style of mature Burgundy.
