✨ Technical Specifications
Château de Meursault's '10 Ans d'Age' represents a magnificent liquid history of Burgundian distillation, typically crafted as a traditional Marc de Bourgogne or Fine de Bourgogne. Distilled from the high-quality grape pomace or lees of the estate's prestigious Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards, this spirit is aged for a minimum of ten years in French oak casks within the château's legendary 12th-century double-vaulted cellars. This slow, decade-long maturation coaxes out deep amber hues and a complex aromatic profile of dried stone fruits, toasted nuts, sweet spices, and refined rancio. It stands as a testament to the ancient monastic traditions of utilizing every element of the harvest to create spirits of immense depth and contemplative character.
