Pierre Girardin Meursault Perrieres Premier Cru 2022
Pierre Girardin Meursault Perrieres Premier Cru 2022
Floral and rich, the wine displays vibrant, honeyed characters, preserved fruit with more than a little minerality. Well-structured wine which balances firmness with ripe fruit flavours. 100% Chardonnay 55+ year old vines, Fermented with indigenous yeast and in 456L oak barrels (100% new). Unfined and unfiltered.
Pierre Girardin (also known as Pierre-Vincent Girardin or "PVG") is a wine producer based in the town of Meursault, in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy. The domaine, however, produces a wide range of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay-based wines, from basic Bourgogne labels to several grands crus from across the region, including the Côte de Nuits.
Although himself a new face in the wine-producing community in the area, Girardin is the son of well-respected vigneron Vincent Girardin, who sold his eponymous domaine in 2012. Benefitting from his father's extensive contacts in Burgundy, as well as a small collection of top plots across the region that were not included in the 2012 sale, Girardin fils (son) has been able to establish an already stellar portfolio.
