Note di degustazione
(4.7 grams per liter acidity): Bright, light yellow. Very ripe, slightly exotic aromas of candied citrus fruits. Round, spicy and deep; at once thicker and more energetic than the Charmes. This wonderfully pliant, silky wine is downright creamy for the year. Really saturates the mouth and echoes on the finish, showing subtle floral lift. The wine's spine of acidity is only apparent with extended aeration.

The 2014 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrières is much more expressive than the Meursault Charmes at this stage - great minerality, a little more verve and animation. The palate is taut on the entry with a fine line of acidity, satisfying depth and grip with a persistent, walnut and sea salt finish that just goes on and on. This is one of several great wines from this premier cru in 2014, and is one of Pierre-Yves' best contributions to the vintage.
Barrel sample. Higher parcel from which he has bought since 2001, high part calcaire but quite deep. ‘For me Genevrières isn’t inferior to Perrières,' says PY, ‘at least’. He admits this refers specifically to his parcels. Spicy and dense. Well sculpted. Lots of density and potential. Very long and vibrato. (JR)
(just one barrel made owing to hail losses and greater vine stress): Pale, bright yellow. Subdued but pure aromas of pear, lime and crushed herbs. Supple in the middle but without quite the energy or juiciness of the Charmes; this strikes me as almost over-concentrated. Flavors of lemon, lime and fresh herbs lead to a persistent, somewhat tannic finish. Like the Abbaye de Morgeot this needs--and should benefit from--a racking.
