Les Corbins lies just north of Meursault’s village, where deeper clay-limestone soils give a broader expression of Chardonnay. Bitouzet-Prieur’s vines here were planted between 1974 and 1987. The 2022 was fermented with native yeasts and aged 16 months in 20% new oak, then bottled unfiltered.

This is the domaine’s most approachable Meursault. It shows classic orchard fruit and creamy texture, balanced by firm acidity and mineral length.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 88

"A discreet touch of mineral reduction lurks in the background on the nose of mostly hazelnut and acacia blossom aromas trimmed in just enough wood to mention. The delicious medium-weight flavours also possess excellent punch, and I particularly like the clean and dry finish that is well-balanced. While this could use a bit more depth, more should develop if given a chance." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

"The 2022 Meursault Les Corbins has a well-defined, quite minerally bouquet that opens nicely in the glass, even though it is not the definition of complexity. The palate is well-balanced with a texturally waxy opening. Quite a pithy Meursault with good extract, though it just needs a little more persistence on the finish. Fine." -Neal Martin

What importer Rosenthal Wine Merchant has to say about this wine...

Southeast-facing Les Corbins is located north of the village of Meursault on the way to Volnay, just underneath the premier cru Les Plures. François owns a hectare and a half of Chardonnay here, planted between 1974 and 1987; the soil is a particularly deep and rocky clay-limestone mix. Aged 16 months in 20% new barrels, it’s a textbook Meursault, combining intense minerality with a subtle buttercream note, and plenty of acid-driven tension as per the Bitouzet house style.

Focus On: Burgundy

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
