2013 Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières
My first pour was perhaps a little oxidized and nutty. I re-tasted from a different bottle at the end of the evening, and this was lovely, racy acidity of 2013 but with a wonderful minerality and richness.

Insane, explosive fireworks on the nose, expansive and impossibly long on the palate. Still so young but with so much depth and purity. Truly memorable.
