Description
What kind of wine it is
Joseph Pascal's Meursault Chardonnay is a still white wine from Burgundy of great authenticity. On the nose, it reveals a clear bouquet where floral notes intertwine with fresh citrus hints and delicate nuances of hazelnut. On the palate, it is rich and enveloping, with a structured and harmonious profile. Served between 10 and 12°C, it pairs ideally with fish dishes, shellfish, vegetarian recipes and cheeses, enhancing their aromatic complexity.
Where it comes from
This wine is produced in France, in the renowned Meursault area of Burgundy, by Joseph Pascal. The region offers ideal conditions for growing Chardonnay. The soil profile of the vineyards is characterised by clay and limestone soil, a fundamental element that defines the wine's identity, giving it a solid structure and impeccable aromatic clarity. This mineral matrix imparts a pronounced regional typicity to the glass, celebrating the harmony between the grape variety and its natural habitat.
How it is produced
Vinification begins with carefully calibrated pneumatic pressing of the grapes. Afterwards, the wine matures for ten months on the lees in oak barrels, some of which are new. This stage gives the wine volume and a pleasant velvety texture on the palate. At the end of the maturation in wood, a meticulous blend in stainless steel is carried out to harmonise the flavour profile. These processes result in a balanced and profound wine, capable of preserving the integrity of the original grape variety.
