The Le Meurger name stems from the word meurs (walls), constructed to mark out a property, built along the edges of plots from stones extracted from the fields. These walls were called murgers or les meurgers, and with that in mind, we seek to distinguish our entry into the category of Burgundy as more than just a price point.
The wines are textbook examples of what their label declares, and no well-versed palate in Burgundy can deny their provenance, or quality, for the money involved. Walls are often built to keep people out; our ‘Le Muerger’ is a wall built to protect a new tradition of vintage-to-vintage access to the best wines from Burgundy, without a negociant inserting themselves between the cellar and the importer.
