Moillard Meursault Chardonnay 750ml, R1,499.99, Woolworths
Sometimes it really is all about the address. Moillard Meursault is 100% chardonnay from Meursault, one of Burgundy’s most famous white wine villages, in the Côte de Beaune. The village has built its reputation on chardonnay, producing some of Burgundy’s most sought-after whites. In other words, this is chardonnay with a very good postcode.
Why we love it:
Meursault has a habit of ruining ordinary chardonnay for people. Moillard’s version is rich and elegant, with ripe orchard fruit, subtle toast and beautifully integrated oak. At R1,499.99, it’s definitely a treat, but one worth saving for a celebration. Pair it with lobster, scallops, roast chicken or a very good French cheese, and make an occasion of it.
