Château de Meursault

A large mansion house with neat rows of green vines growing in its grounds.

One of the prettiest of the Côte de Beaune châteaux, Château de Meursault has beautiful grounds and produces some of the most prestigious white wines in the world. Guided tours visit the estate's vast labyrinth of underground caves, the oldest dating to the 12th century; the 500-sq-meter 16th-century cellar is particularly impressive.
