Note di degustazione
Pale, bright yellow. Deep peach, nutmeg, jasmine and orange blossom on the sexy nose. Rich, supple and sweet, with expansive flavors of stone fruits and spicy oak. Not the last word in complexity, but this big, sexy Meursault is impressively thick and long. (ST)

As it almost always is, here the nose is spicier still and more refined as well with striking complexity adding compelling interest to the floral, citrus and white fruit aromas. The rich, concentrated and classy flavors possess plenty of extract that confers a seductive texture that carries over to the impressively long and harmonious finish. This is unmistakably at another level, at least at this early juncture. *Sweet Spot, Outstanding!*
This doesn’t seem to have the depth of the Perrières. It’s balanced, correct, but not very exciting. (JH)
(Bouchard owns two parcels in the upper section of the cru) Cloudy appearance. Highly aromatic nose offers flowers, white peach and fresh apricot. Juicy, bright and refined, with ripe, integrated acidity giving a weightless quality to the lemon, lime and floral flavors. This rich but pure and crisp wine really saturates the mouth. Just 13% new oak used here, according to Prost. (The Goutte d'Or and Charmes had not finished their malos.)
