More perky than the village wine. Really lovely. Fresh and has the usual Limozin opulence too. Great balance. Simply lovely! Pineapple and firm melon drives the core forward with real verve. But sophisticated…A good vintage for this say Lucie. She is right! Drinking range: 2029 - 2033 L&S (Nov 2025)

The 2024 Meursault Limozin comes from 70-year-old vines. It has a light and airy bouquet with hints of Conference pear and beeswax, one that gains depth with aeration. The palate is crisp and taut, sorbet-fresh with orange pith and mandarin notes that segue into more nutty/smoky notes towards the finish. Whilst I felt that 2023 just lagged behind other cuvées, this does not. Drinking range: 2027 - 2045 Rating: 91-93 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Jan 2026)
A full yellow, plenty of oak on the nose, this has significantly more volume in all departments – as you might expect. This holds true on the palate as well. A little touch of coconut, lively rather than trenchant acidity, the fruit fresh but ripe, with generosity. Drinking range: 2030 - 2036 Rating: 93-95 Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy (Oct 2025)
Domaine Henri Germain
Jean-François Germain was joined in 2018 by his daughter Lucie - who is now helping to run this small (7ha) domaine.
The Chassagne vineyards came through his mother, a Pillot, and Jean-François is married to François Jobard's daughter, so they are quite intertwined with some of our other producers. The Poruzots comes from the rows next to Remi Jobard's. In terms of winemaking the Germains are always happy to let nature take its course, and in the vineyards they follow as natural a system of viticulture as possible (organic, not certified).
These are concentrated, tightly wound wines from one of Burgundy's coldest cellars. Alcoholic fermentations can take months and the malolactics are often late, so they have always gone for long élevage in old barrels, always for two winters, and the Premiers Crus usually for 22 months. Slow to develop, they show wonderful crystalline purity. New wood is used very sparingly, just to replace barrels sold when they get to ten years old.

Lovely. Great acidity, super fruit - this is poised and graceful. Good drive too - not a heavyweight - but pretty with a concentrated core. Sometimes this is very much a broader 'Goutte d'Or' inflected release - reflecti...(read more)
