Note di degustazione
The 2017 Meursault Les Genevrières 1er Cru is richer on the nose compared to its peers, offering subtle tropical scents (dried pineapple and white peach) and revealing a touch of spice with time. The palate is ripe and candied on the entry, then slightly viscous and powerful. This is more akin to a Les Charmes than a Genevrières, although it maintains compelling focus on the decadent, praline-tinged finish. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune.

Youthfully reticent aromas of crisp Anjou pear, blanched almonds, Meyer lemon and hints of praline introduce the 2017 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrières, a medium to full-bodied, deep and tensile wine that's impressively concentrated and nicely defined. This confirms its strong showing from barrel; indeed, the wine has gained in tension since I tasted it in December. While it's a little shut down after its recent bottling, it should drink very well with a bit of bottle age.
Stewed apple on the nose followed by a saline savouriness on the palate, with plenty of fruit concentration giving good persistence. Classic, typical, and with the gutsiness to open with time. (RH)
