A Challenging Vintage, an Exceptional Result
The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was marked by extreme conditions. A warm spring prompted early budburst by the end of March, but devastating frosts struck on April 3rd, with temperatures falling to -7°C, wiping out 90% of the initial growth. Flowering resumed late June under favourable conditions, and a warm summer followed, with just enough rainfall to ensure proper ripening.
Harvest began on 23rd September, yielding a tiny crop, but the fruit that survived was of outstanding quality. This wine exemplifies the resilience and craftsmanship of Sylvain Debord, whose meticulous winemaking has crafted a vintage of rare elegance and depth.

Winery | This cuvee comes from a blend of two climates within the Meursault appellation. The hillsides have a gradient of around 12% and face southeast, which offers the vines optimal sunlight exposure, while cooler overnight influences bring balancing acidity. The vines are grown in complex, stony, deep clay and limestone soils and are densely planted. Cultivated according to the traditional methods, they are maintained with a large and aerated canopy for sun protection in the warmer vintages of late. They are sustainably farmed with practices such as using fresh compost from local farms to nourish the vines. General treatments include copper and sulphur, and mechanical ploughing occurs to maintain the vineyard soils. Hand-harvested at optimum maturity |
