Note di degustazione
The 2018 Meursault Bouchères 1er Cru has a rather generic bouquet, missing a little personality, correct but not the most memorable. Touches of camphor emerge with aeration at least offering more dimension. The palate is well balanced with a sappy core of orange rind and lemon peel. A little terse, almost Puligny-esque, with a persistent finish. With time in the glass, those aromatics begin to reveal nuances and it ends up being quite a cerebral Meursault, albeit one entering a dumb phase. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting.

The 2018 Meursault Boucheres 1er Cru underwent an élevage identical to that of the Désirée, yet this is far superior due to the influence of terroir. Fresh and vibrant on the nose, it has tangible mineralité and vigor, while the palate is very well balanced with tangy orange peel and quince. Brimming with tension. The impressive, powerful finish lingers in the mouth. Very refined yet intense.
The 2018 Meursault Boucheres 1er Cru was slightly reduced on the nose when I tasted it, something that Dominique Lafon intended, as he thinks it will be beneficial. The palate is very well balanced, fresh and energetic, with good delineation toward the lightly spiced, quite persistent finish. This is very stylish. Superb.
