Vincent Girardin’s Meursault Les Clous is a premier white Burgundy crafted from Chardonnay grapes, offering a harmonious balance of citrus, stone fruit, and mineral notes.


Vincent Girardin Meursault “Les Clous” showcases the signature elegance of Côte de Beaune Chardonnay. Luminous gold in the glass, it unfurls aromas of white peach, lemon zest, and toasted hazelnut, with hints of flinty minerality. On the palate, a creamy texture is enlivened by vibrant acidity, leading to a long, mineral-tinged finish.Hand-harvested from premier parcels in Meursault, the grapes are gently pressed and aged in French oak barrels (20% new) for 12–14 months. The result is a refined, ageworthy wine that pairs beautifully with seafood, poultry, and creamy cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Enticing notes of white peach, ripe pear, and citrus blossom mingle with nuances of toasted hazelnut, vanilla, and subtle flint.

Palate

A creamy entry gives way to bright acidity and a backbone of mineral salinity. Layered flavors of Granny Smith apple, lemon curd, and brioche lead to a long, refined finish.

Vinification & Aging

Grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness, whole-cluster pressed, and fermented in French oak barrels (20% new). Aging lasts 12–14 months on the fine lees, with periodic bâtonnage to build texture and complexity.

Food Pairing

Enjoy this Meursault with grilled lobster, seared scallops, roasted chicken in cream sauce, or aged goat cheese. Its lively acidity and depth make it a versatile companion to rich, savory dishes.
