Jancis Robinson
"Pommard side. Very sweet and rich – almost too much so! Quite dry and tart on the finish at the moment. 16.5/20 points."
Vinous Reverie Notes
Pascal Prunier-Bonheur Meursault is a very stylish wine, showing good depth, weight, complexity, and mineral ‘fraicheur”. Straw and melon on the nose. Powerful fruit and good acidity with touches of honey. A fifth generation winemaker in Auxey-Duresses. He created his own domain in 1983. At the time, he rented vineyards totaling 7.2 acres. Since then, through purchases of small parcels of vines, his domain covers 12.72 acres, spread out over several villages in the Cote de Beaune. His vines are on average 35 years old. The production is made up of 40% white wine (Chardonnay) and 60% red (Pinot Noir). The diversity of his ‘appellations’ is typical of the small producer in Burgundy.
