Boyer-Martenot Meursault 1er cru “Perrières” 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.

Perrières, the “eternal Grand Cru in waiting.” The nose is dry and exquisite with sweet cream butter and a pleasant reductive note of dried flowers. The palate is deeper and lower toned, with an extraordinary stony concentration.
