Previously released under the Domaine Boisson-Vadot label, wines from their holdings are now made and presented under the labels of Bernard Boisson's children; his son Pierre Boisson and daughter Anne Boisson. While the two children vinify separately, they share the same cellar in Meursault, and produce wines that are more similar than they are different. Vine age is impressive, with many plots over 60 years old, and no herbicides or fertilisers used. Wines are fermented wild in barrel, thereafter raised in oak for 19-22 months, with no more than 30% new oak used predominantly for the top cuvées.

The Boisson family own a 1ha parcel within this lieu-dit which was planted in 1988. Following fermentation, the wine spends 18 months in oak, with around 20% being new.

Other Reviews....
The 2020 Meursault Les Grands Charrons unfurls in the glass with aromas of crisp green orchard fruit, pastry cream, orange zest and fresh croissants, followed by a medium to full-bodied, pure and satiny palate that's ample and seamless, with racy acids and chalky grip on the finish. Drink 2023 - 2035.
