Many of those reading this newsletter today will have had a chance to have met my mother, Pam, over the many years that she and my father, Jack, helped establish, grow and guide our family wine business. Early on in the creation of our wine business – in the late 1970s – we were visiting with great friends and suppliers in Burgundy when my mother was handed a glass of Meursault. With out hesitation or any debate she stated with enthusiasm, “I love Meursault!” – to which our winemaker friend replied, “Oh Pamela, you love all the wines!”.

There was much truth in the Frenchman’s reply. The only thing my parents valued and enjoyed more than great wine and food were the relationships – both here at home and abroad – that this business allowed them to enjoy with remarkable people.

That said, there truly was no wine my mother loved more than Meursault. For all of it’s complexity and fame and pedigree, it was probably the luxurious and indulgent experience in great Meursault that evoked this powerful connection. It is hard to think of another wine (red, white, sparkling or sweet) that delivers the opulence of this liquid gold.

Today we are very pleased to introduce our latest release – a fine example of Meursault at its very best from Domaine Chanson.
