Note di degustazione
The 2010 Meursault Les Charmes is a big, big wine. Endless waves of fruit hit the palate. This is another extroverted, Meursault, even within the context of Charmes. Honey, almonds, wild flowers and juicy peaches wrap around the fleshy, exuberant finish. Today, the Charmes is a bit heavy, but if it settles down in bottle, it might merit a higher score down the road.

The 2010 Meursault Les Charmes is a big, big wine. Endless waves of fruit hit the palate. This is another extroverted, Meursault, even within the context of Charmes. Honey, almonds, wild flowers and juicy peaches wrap around the fleshy, exuberant finish. Today, the Charmes is a bit heavy, but if it settles down in bottle, it might merit a higher score down the road. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. (Not yet released) I find much to like in Francois Bitouzet’s 2010 whites. The wines are a bit tighter (in a good way) and more focused than they have been at times. Bitouzet told me he used just the heart of the press, as he wasn’t totally happy with the first press juice. Bitouzet did very little batonnage in 2010, a decision that seems to have paid off handsomely. The harvest started on September 22, quite late, and the malos were lengthy, as they were virtually everywhere. Bitouzet bottled his 2010 whites in March 2012.
