Meursault Wine: Everything you need to know

[@YouTubeJulien]

An excellent video overall. Well done. The elephant in the room though here, is a vocabulary ambiguity that would need to be explained if it's going to be used this way. You can't say Meursault wine is highly sweet without explaining what you mean because Meusault is always absolutely dry (no or close to zero residual sugars, it's a legal requirement from the appellation authorities) so you can't just say and write 'high sweet' without explaining that you don't actually mean sweet in the common sense (sweet means sweet which is not applicable here). But well done otherwise 👍 for making wine explaining videos myself here on KZbin, i can see how much effort has gone into it. Well put together and very valuable explanations if it wasn't for letting some people think we're talking about sweet dessert wines which we definitely aren't in Meursault 🥂

Julien Miquel thanks for the comment and the kind words. Indeed you raise a very valid point! The high sweetness spoken about here could be mistaken with sweetness of dessert wines. Will have to address in another video

Your videos are informative. Please slow down with the pronounciations so we can absorb. Love to get close to the various wine appellations through your channel. Thank you.

I will try my best! Thanks for your comment Marilyn!

Congratulations for this video! But I think the opposite about Chasagne and Puligny and maybe I could add Roulot as a great author in this wine apelation too, among others, of course.

early 90s i drank some 40+ of them, many growers and climats falling in love with them scent of hay,barnyard, egg shells was ambrosial nowadays no such aromas anymore, thus top aussie,canuck or kiwi chardonnay=contemporary meursault at fraction of price why bother then?

Meursault is medium sweetness? Huh? White burgundies are known for being elegant DRY wines.

Hi Brian, thanks for your question. So the answer is two fold really. 1- Medium in sweetness is not to be confused with medium sweet... The problem is that wine is broken down into just dry- medium sweet and sweet, then you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between say a Meursault and a Chablis... Both Chardonnay, both Burgundy and both dry.. This is why within dry there is a range. You can watch my video on sweetness:( kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6G9dJWgoqp6hNk as well the acidity: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp7CioKIqbygnqs where I explain this more in depth. 2- Sweetness and elegance have no correlation. Sweet wines can be incredibly elegant... Take Sauternes (an example from many many) or certain medium sweet or sweet Rieslings from Germany and you will see this! I hope this all makes sense.. Thanks again for your question
