Terroir
Southeast, very stony, cool terroir. but with some topsoil so easier to work.
Winemaking and Ageing
Fully hand harvested.
Slow pressing, Indigenous yeast fermentation in tank.
Aged 11 months in 50% tank and 50% wood (30% new) then into tank on the lees for a couple of months before bottling.

Tasting notes

Given the location near Auxey Duresses, vineyards are cooler and thus allowed to ripen longer on the vine. As a result, it gives the wine good focus, minerality and tension. Otherwise, classic Meursault aromas of ripe apples and pears with a touch of honey and hazelnuts.

Domaine Lucien Muzard et fils

There is evidence of a winegrower named Muzard dating back to 1645, on a deed for the purchase of grapes involving a Beaune winery.

Right through his career, Lucien Muzard - Claude and Hervé's father - bought land and planted vines with his wife Paule, thus offering his sons the possibility of carrying on working on the inherited legacy of old vines. Lucien used the whole bunch vinification process and matured his wines in wooden vats, then sold most of his production to local traders.
