Aegerter Meursault 2002

Estate History

Founded in 1988 by Jean-Luc Aegerter and now run by his son Paul, Maison Aegerter has built its reputation on producing elegant, terroir-driven wines from Burgundy’s most prestigious appellations. This **Meursault 2002** is a testament to the estate’s commitment to showcasing the richness, finesse, and minerality of Chardonnay from one of the Côte de Beaune’s most iconic white wine villages.

Terroir

The vineyards of **Meursault**, located in the Côte de Beaune, are planted on clay-limestone soils ideal for Chardonnay. These soils, combined with the cool climate of Burgundy, contribute to the wine’s balance between roundness, aromatic intensity, and mineral freshness, even in a mature vintage like 2002.

Tasting Notes

Golden yellow color with amber reflections, showing graceful aging. The nose is complex and evolved, with aromas of baked apple, honey, toasted almond, hazelnut, and brioche. On the palate, the wine is rich and creamy, with a beautiful balance of freshness and maturity, leading to a long, mineral, and elegant finish.

A beautifully matured Meursault — silky, rich, and harmonious, combining aromatic complexity with vibrant freshness and depth.

Pairing

Perfect with lobster, scallops, roasted poultry, creamy mushroom dishes, or aged cheeses like Comté and Beaufort.
