Meursault Les Tessons 2018 — Domaine Pierre Morey
This Meursault Les Tessons 2018 from Domaine Pierre Morey embodies a broad, elegant and profoundly Burgundian expression of Chardonnay from the Côte de Beaune. From one of Meursault’s highly regarded lieux-dits, it combines the natural richness of the appellation, the limestone finesse of the terroir and the precise, restrained and refined signature of the domaine.
The 2018 vintage brings generous substance, ripe fruit and an enveloping texture, while preserving fine freshness: ripe lemon, pear, yellow apple, white peach, fresh almond, fine hazelnut, delicate butter, discreet honey, warm stone, chalk and a light smoky touch. A Meursault that is expressive, satiny and beautifully balanced.
A great Meursault of texture, depth and precision. Les Tessons 2018 seduces through its balance between breadth, ripe fruit, limestone freshness and a long saline finish. The wine retains the generosity of the vintage, but without heaviness, in an elegant and perfectly controlled style.
Terroir: Les Tessons, depth and finesse in Meursault
Les Tessons is one of Meursault’s most admired lieux-dits, with a depth and presence that often place it among the appellation’s most highly regarded village sites. Its limestone and stony soils produce Chardonnays that are broad, precise and persistent. At Pierre Morey, this richness is always framed by a pure reading of the terroir and beautifully integrated ageing.

Expression of the 2018 vintage
The 2018 vintage in Burgundy produced white wines that are ripe, generous and expressive. In Meursault, this richness translates into broad, seductive wines, while the finest terroirs retain enough freshness to balance the substance. Les Tessons 2018 therefore offers a generous, profound and harmonious reading of Chardonnay, with fine potential to evolve towards notes of hazelnut, fine honey, noble butter and warm stone.
In summary: a broad, satiny and elegant Meursault Les Tessons 2018, driven by the generosity of the vintage, the depth of the lieu-dit and the precise signature of Domaine Pierre Morey.
