Note di degustazione
The Meursault les Vireuils ’10 possesses a show-stopping bouquet that is more reminiscent of say, a Puligny Cailleret, its rich precocious fruit not obfuscating its granitic personality. There is astonishing clarity on the palate that is delicate and pretty, subtle citrus and peach on the entry that segues into a more terse, slate-like finish. This is an outstanding Meursault that should evolve beautifully over the next 10 to 15 years. Tasted March 2013.

(these vines were harvested late, according to Roulot): Subtle citrussy nose. At once tactile and juicy, with excellent mineral spine to support the lemon and pineapple flavors. The very long, stony finish shows the combination of sweetness and energy of the vintage's better examples.
The 2010 Meursault Les Vireuils is quite open in this vintage. There is a level of richness in the fruit that is quite unusual for Vireuils. At the same time, the finish is a bit attenuated. White stone fruits, pears, flowers, smoke and slate flow through to the finish. I find a bit less energy than is typically the case.
Jean-Marc Roulot's vines are high up and relatively late ripening in this vineyard west of the village on a bit of clay. Light, lean, very fresh and precise. Dense on the finish. Very much made for the long term. Chewy, chalky finish. (JR)
