Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur Meursault Les Corbins 2019

Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur is an exceptional estate, with vineyards concentrated in Volnay and Meursault. Indeed, it can boast some of the finest Premiers Crus in both. The domaine is the happy marriage, literally, of Vincent Bitouzet (of Volnay) and Ann Prieur (of Meursault), which explains why they have a cellar in each; making red wine in Volnay, next door to world-famous Lafarge (a distant cousin), and white wines in the Meursault winery. Their aim is always to produce an elegant style, restrained in the use of new oak, with a tight structure, so the wines gently unfurl with time. Les Corbins is named after the small, stony plot it grapes are sourced from, just below the Premier Cru Les Plures. A fine Burgundy, open early and decant.
