Rarer than the whites, Meursault reds benefit from a red clay terroir that gives them a more tannic style than their Volnay neighbors. With its brilliant ruby color, Meursault red has a subtle nose, still closed but already aromatic, with fruity and animal nuances. A very elegant wine to be aged for a few months. A Burgundy rarity not to be missed!
