Domaine Dupont Fahn - Meursault - Les Clous 2023
Domaine Dupont-Fahn is located in Tailly in the commune of Meursault , in Burgundy and was created in 1975. At that time, Raymond Dupont-Fahn 's grandfather believed that his land, straddling Les Perrières de Meursault and Sous le dos d'Anes , was too rocky and lacking in soil. The INAO agreed that 20 cm of topsoil be deposited on the terroir. A few years later, following a complaint from neighboring producers, the plot was downgraded for this same reason to Bourgogne Blanc. Nearly forty years later, the vines are deeply and perfectly rooted in their original terroir and produce high-quality wines. This history, undeniably unique in Burgundy, attracts the curious and buyers, and it is now very difficult to obtain these wines. Raymond Dupont-Fahn represents the third generation of winemakers on this estate worked without pesticides .
Les Clous is located at the highest altitude in Meursault and on very hard limestone . This cuvée comes from 85-year-old Chardonnay vines .
Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay
