Meursault - Les Narvaux Dessous - Domaine Bernard-Bonin 2021
The domain
The Domaine Bernard-Bonin is a wine producer based in the town of Meursault, in the Côte de Beaune sub-region, in the heart of Burgundy's Côte d'Or. The majority of the company's vineyards are in the Meursault appellation and produce a number of Meursault Premier Crus. Bernard-Bonin also owns a few plots in the neighboring Puligny-Montrachet appellation.
The estate, which produces only white wines almost exclusively from Chardonnay, was originally known as Michelot Mère et Fille, but was taken over in 1998 by the couple Nicolas Bernard and Véronique Bonin. The couple takes care of seven hectares of vines, including plots in the premier crus of Meursault, Genevrères and Charmes.
They also have two premier crus in Puligny-Montrachet: Les Folatières and La Garenne. Other labels include Meursault Clos du Cromin, Meursault Vieilles Vignes and Initiales B.B. (a White Burgundy).
Bernard-Bonin has adopted biodynamics and the estate has been certified organic since 2015.

Tasting: very rare 2021 from the estate, a vintage which combines the salivation of cool years and the concentration of a year sacrificed by frost... There were few grapes, but those that were born drew everything they needed from floor. The series is stunning, we understand the excitement around the estate's wines when we have drunk a few bottles! |
