Tasting notes
The 2018 Meursault Clos de Corvées de Citeau Monopole is showing beautifully, opening in the glass with aromas of pear and peach that are complemented by hints of orange oil, fresh pastry and nutmeg. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and sumptuous, it's the most round and textural of Chavy's lieux-dits, but also one of the most reserved, with fine depth at the core and a long, saline finish.

The 2018 Meursault Clos des Corvées de Citeau comes from the domaine’s one-hectare monopole located in the middle of the village (part of the lieu-dit of En L’Ormeau). It ripens early and was the first to be picked in 2018. It has a distinct bouquet, quite understated, with yellow stone fruit, grilled walnut and powdered chalk. The palate is fresh and vibrant and slightly lower in acidity than the domaine’s other cuvées, leading to a slightly exotic but very attractive finish.
