2024 Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes Dessus, Domaine Tessier

For Charmes, this is very lively, but then it does come from the upper part that touches the lower part of Les Perrières. It has a very mineral underlying core and a reticence more akin to its more lauded cousin. The Tessiers used to sell a chunk off to negotiants to finance their work in the vineyards and the cuverie, but, now that that is all finished, they are keeping it all, so we have much more to play with than we used to have, which is great news as the wine is really lovely.
