Aegerter Meursault Meix sous le Chateau 2019

Estate History

Maison Aegerter, founded in 1988 by Jean-Luc Aegerter and now led by his son Paul, is recognized for producing elegant, terroir-driven wines from Burgundy’s most renowned appellations. The **Meursault “Meix sous le Château”** comes from a well-situated climat beneath the village’s historic château, offering a classic expression of Meursault Chardonnay — rich, fresh, and beautifully balanced.

Terroir

The **”Meix sous le Château”** vineyard benefits from clay-limestone soils with excellent drainage, contributing to the roundness, aromatic complexity, and mineral backbone of the wine. The 2019 vintage, marked by sunny conditions and controlled yields, brought concentration, aromatic intensity, and vibrant freshness to the grapes.

Tasting Notes

Brilliant pale gold color with green highlights. The nose is expressive and elegant, offering aromas of citrus zest, white peach, pear, almond, and subtle hints of vanilla and brioche. On the palate, the wine is round and creamy, with lively acidity, well-integrated oak, and a long, mineral finish that provides tension and finesse.

A rich and elegant Meursault — combining aromatic depth, freshness, and silky texture with excellent aging potential.

Pairing

Perfect with grilled lobster, scallops, creamy poultry dishes, or soft cheeses like Brie de Meaux and Chaource.
