Tessier

“Arnaud Tessier is clearly a man of the vineyards…[he is] blessed with plots in the best parts of both Meursault Les Charmes-Dessus and Meursault Genevrieres-Dessus and some fine holdings of Meursault Poruzots and Meursault Casse Têtes. These are terroir wines of the highest quality.”     –Steen Öhmann, Winehog

Arnaud started working the vineyards with his father when he was just 14.  Arnaud was thrust into the spotlight of leading a domaine at the age of 21. The vineyard is fully organic. In the cellar, he is assisted by his wife, Catherine.

Blessed with select plots of land . Rigorously worked soils , moderate yields and long, slow height differences in commonly used barrels are the rudiments of the approach. The result is concentrated but strong wines that unfold slowly and reward the bottle aging.

The work that this dynamic duo put in have put them squarely in the conversation among the top producers of Meursault. They are beloved by Michelin 3 star restaurants all around France.
