Boyer-Martenot Meursault 1er cru “Charmes” 2023

Vincent Boyer somehow continues to fly a bit under the radar of much of the international wine press. He’s an insiders’ producer with a mouthwatering collection of terroirs; together with his sister Sylvie who handles much of the viticulture, they continue to turn out magnificent expressions of their unparalleled terroir. Boyer’s 2023s are simply delicious – juicy and fleshy and approachable, but with excellent tension and low alcohol.

Meursault 1er cru “Charmes” is often the most opulent of the trio, and 2023 is no exception. The nose is deep and bursting with fresh flower and white spice perfume; it’s a noticeable jump in expressiveness from the village cuvées.
