Note di degustazione
Like the village Meursault, some oak influence evident on the nose, and a little more spicy. At this early stage the sharp citrus and the creamy texture are not fully meshed but the future is promising. Impressive length. (JH)

The 2017 Meursault Le Meix Sous Le Château delivers aromas of green apple, lemon oil, drawn butter and subtle praline, followed by a medium-bodied, satiny wine that's the broadest and most voluptuous in Fichet's portfolio, though it retains the tangy acidity and incisive that are the domaine's signatures.
(from a 1965 planting; picked near the end, on September 8; aging in 10% new oak): Bright medium yellow. Yellow peach, mirabelle and spices on the nose, with complicating notes of hazelnut and mint. Quite rich in the mouth, showing some spicy oak; the closest to exotic of these 2017s to this point and without quite the tension or energy of the preceding samples. Not a mineral style. Finishes slightly bitter-edged in a youthful way. Assistant Hervey noted that this wine, from a deep clay site, may be our most aromatic Meursault.
