Golden yellow colour. Pronounced legs in the glass. On the nose, ripe citrus fruits. Dried oranges, buttery aromas, honey and hazelnuts. Really quite expressive. Full-bodied and fleshy in the mouth, again with ripe fruits showing on the palate. Biscuits, orange marmalade perhaps, lemon tart, ripe Boskoop apples. Long-lasting finish. This is not the most elegant or mineral of Meursault expressions, but it is showing really well and with its richness turns out to be a match even for heartier dishes and desserts as well. Keeping in mind this is a village wine, it is really top quality.
Drink through 2026.
