🏰 The 2021 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières from Domaine Ballot-Millot is a highly anticipated white Burgundy, known for its elegant and refined expression of Chardonnay. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy experienced favorable climatic conditions, leading to precise, balanced wines with good acidity and controlled fruitiness. This particular wine reveals a complex aromatic profile with notes of white flowers, fresh hazelnut, and a hint of fresh butter. On the palate, it is round and ample with a nice liveliness and a slightly mineral finish, ensuring excellent length. Critics have highlighted its beautiful focus, laser-like minerality, and riveting tension, intensity, and refinement, often comparing Perrières to Grand Crus from other villages. 【Riveting tension and Grand Cru-rivaling complexity from a top Meursault 1er Cru site】.
🍴 This Meursault 1er Cru pairs excellently with seared foie gras, Breton lobster grilled with lemon butter, morel mushroom risotto with Parmesan, or roasted free-range poultry with fresh herbs. For Asian cuisine, consider it with steamed scallops with garlic and vermicelli or rich seafood hotpot.
🥂 Ideal for an important business lunch, a wedding anniversary, or an elegant family dinner. It can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity over 10-15 years.
