Note di degustazione
Precise aromas of tangerine, crushed stone and cold steel. Wonderfully penetrating and vibrant, with lemon and stone flavors offering great class and cut. This mounts impressively on the back end, finishing with superb precision and energy. If the Boucheres is like Alsace pinot gris, this is more akin to austere, stony grand cru riesling. I'd lay this down for at least six or seven years. Interestingly, Roulot believes the '99s will be easier to drink in their earlier years than these '02s.

Gravel, minerals, stones, and spices can be discerned in the nose of the 2002 Meursault Perrieres. Light to medium-bodied, satiny-textured, and deep, this fresh mineral and spice-flavored wine possesses a lengthy, pure, detailed finish. Projected maturity: 2006-2012. Jean-Marc Roulot loves the 2002s. “The north wind of early September concentrated all the grapes. It is a vintage like 1992, yet with lower yields. We gained three degrees of natural potential alcohol in one week.” He is convinced that these wines will age well because “they have perfect health, ripeness, and acidity.” Importers: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel.
