Jean-Philippe Fichet Bourgogne Blanc V.V. Cote d'Or 2023 NO UPC Avize Grand CruMeursault is not where anyone goes looking for a bargain, which is exactly what makes Jean Philippe Fichet's Bourgogne Blanc worth knowing. Fichet works a small collection of parcels around Meursault every one of them under a hectare and the vines behind his Bourgogne Blanc run roughly 47 to 80 years old.
