2015 Meursault Les Perrieres

The 2015 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières is a fabulous wine which takes time in the glass to unwind, reluctantly offering up notes of wet stones, citrus zest and fresh pear. On the palate, the wine is elegantly glossy, cool and controlled, with superb energy and tension. This Perrières is less lavish and dramatic than the Chevalier-Montrachet, but its concentration is nevertheless considerable and its finish long.
