About

Product Description:

1997 Meursault "Perrieres" is a current - and mind-bogglingly delicious! - release from Domaine Robert Ampeau. Yes, you read that right... it's nearly 25 years old! The Ampeau cellars are the deepest and coldest in all of the Cote de Beaune, hence the very late releases of all of his wines; The Ampeaus - both Robert initially, and then followed by his son Michel, did everything by hand, even eschewing the Bobar tractor when it was introduced in the 1950s. Tractors limited vine canopy, and their decision to forgo them likely led to the vitality of the wines we enjoy today;This wine is old-school, ultra-rare, ultra-rustic, and ultra-cool for anyone into White Burgundy. It's truly history in the glass - a 25 year old wine that is just now coming to market is absolutely amazing!
