Meursault Domaine du Pavillon

Presentation

Presentation
Located at the very heart of the Côte de Beaune, Meursault is one of Burgundy's flagship villages and among its most celebrated.
Widely renowned for its white wines, it also boasts some terroirs that are better suited to the cultivation of Pinot Noir grapes.
Such is the case for our plot, located north of Meursault, fewer than 400 metres from the "Les Santenots" Climat in Volnay.
