Tasting Notes

93
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Sep 11
Pale yellow. Fresh apricot, peppery spices and stone, plus a whiff of exotic fruits. Fat, spicy and powerful; less minerally than the 2010 version but dense and backward. Finishes chewy and very long, with a captivating gingery quality. Another wine that will require patience.

Meursault

Meursault, in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, is famed for its rich and complex Chardonnay wines. Known for opulent textures, vibrant acidity, and nutty, buttery flavours with notes of stone fruits, citrus, and hazelnuts, these wines also feature a subtle minerality and creamy mouthfeel from limestone-rich soils and oak ageing. Though lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Cru sites like Les Perrières, Les Genevrières, and Les Charmes produce exceptional wines. Top producers include Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Domaine Roulot, and Domaine Coche-Dury, all celebrated for showcasing Meursault's unique terroir.
