Tasting Notes
Racy, saline Meursault with real edge and energy.
Electric Meursault. Energy Over Opulence.
Le Cromin, sometimes called Clos du Cromin, sits right in the heart of Meursault and consistently delivers some of the most exciting wines in the village.
The nose is immediate and intense. Struck match, citrus oil, green apple, a touch of smoke, all layered over a deep, stony core.
On the palate, it’s all energy. Racy, saline, almost electric. There’s texture and presence, but everything is driven forward by a line of acidity that keeps it tight, focused, and alive. Lemon, orchard fruit, and a hint of butter sit within that structure, never spilling over.
There’s something slightly wild beneath it all. Less about comfort, more about tension and movement.
This is Meursault with real substance, but seen through a sharper lens.

The Plot
Le Cromin, often referred to as Clos du Cromin, lies in the centre of Meursault on classic clay-limestone soils. Its position and soil composition contribute to wines that balance depth and texture with a marked mineral drive and freshness, often showing a more energetic, precise side of Meursault.
Technical Details
100% Chardonnay from the Le Cromin parcel in Meursault, grown on clay-limestone soils in the heart of the village.
In the cellar, the approach follows the domaine’s signature style. Whole bunches are pressed long and firmly to extract maximum lees, with controlled oxidation only at this early stage. Fermentation takes place in custom 456-litre barrels for both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, keeping oak influence subtle and allowing the vineyard to lead. From pressing to bottling, the wine is protected with nitrogen, preserving its tension, energy, and mineral precision.

Discover Their Story
The story begins in 2017. At just eighteen years old, Pierre-Vincent Girardin founded his own domaine, working with a handful of exceptional vineyard parcels retained from his family’s historic holdings.
Raised in Meursault and shaped by generations of Burgundian winemaking, he works organically in the vineyards and has rapidly forged a style defined by purity, precision and energy. Already being compared to Coche-Dury & Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, from the first taste, it’s clear why.
Why It Matters

Verified Trustpilot ReviewFAQs
Clear details, so you can buy with confidence
Is this wine ready to drink now?
Yes. This is ready to drink now, but a little patience could make it even more rewarding. Open one soon, then tuck another away if you want to watch it develop.
Should I buy one bottle or a few?
One to try, three if you want to follow it over time, six if you already know the producer or style. Burgundy moves quickly, and small parcels rarely hang around for long.
What if I’m not sure this is my style?
Use our live chat, or pop us an email. We specialise in Burgundy and are always happy to help. Our tasting notes are based on wines tasted by our founders and updated regularly, so you can buy with proper confidence.
How quickly will it arrive?
Fast. We ship every wine on a next-working-day service and dispatch Monday to Friday. At checkout, you can even choose a delivery day that suits you.
How is it packed?
Each bottle is wrapped in tissue before being carefully placed into our specially imported Italian boxes, tested to rigorous standards. We have literally dropped them from the first storey of our house. All our packaging is paper-based and recyclable.
Can I send it as a gift?
Absolutely. As standard, our wines arrive wrapped in bespoke tissue paper. At checkout, you can also add gift bags, gift boxes and notes.
