Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 28 Dec 16
The 2015 Meursault 1er Cru les Perrieres, which comes from two parcels including 20% adjacent to Clos des Perrières and the remainder in Perrières-Dessus, has an attractive bouquet with citrus peel, a hint of licorice and spice, just a little fieriness underneath the surface. The palate is very composed on the entry, the acidity extremely well judged and it builds nicely in the mouth towards a very flattering, lightly spiced, quite structured finish. Perhaps it does not quite deliver the mineral drive of the previous vintage, however, it has a sense of refinement and the persistence is impressive.

Meursault Fine Wine

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.
