Domaine Heitz-Lochardet Meursault Gruyaches 2017 bottelary The resulting wine was keptThe Meursault Les Gruyaches is quite a step up from the generic village Meursalt. This village comes from a plot located just below Les Charmes Dessous (difficult to explain why this small corner is not at part of Charmes Dessous). The nose offer white and yellow fruits and a fine citrus infused minerality. The midpalate offer rich and juicy fruit its long, intense and balanced for a village level Meursault. A fine effort indeed.
