Louis Latour Meursault Premier Cru "Château de Blagny" 2022 is a nice bottle of white Burgundy that pairs well with seafood.

He became a newspaper columnist and won international acclaim in 2015 for his first novel The Meursault Investigation, which was a reworking of The Stranger by Albert Camus.

An earlier work The Meursault Investigation won the best first novel award in 2015.

Daoud has written two previous novels, one of which - the much-praised Meursault Investigation - was a rewriting of Albert Camus’s The Stranger and was shortlisted for the Goncourt in 2015.

Mr. Daoud wrote a novel, “The Meursault Investigation,” that takes Camus’s “The Stranger” — or more precisely, the “majestically nonchalant” murder of an Arab at the heart of it — and turns that Arab into a human being rather than the voiceless, nameless object of a “philosophical crime” by a Frenchman called Meursault.
