February 23, 2010 - Visually a perfect looking bottle. Sourced from Christies in the early nineties to back-build a vertical.
Colour: mid-gold plus
Nose: Mesmeric. White flowers - jasmine, honey suckle. Nut brittle and almond tuiles. Some honey and a very slight dusting of botrytis.
Palate: not a heavyweight wine, instead much more balanced than recent Meursault offerings. Great acidity for a 1982. The entire mouthfeel is one of perfect balance. Nothing dominates, but everything works in symphony, to create a close-to-perfect white Burgundy.
After 60 minutes, there's a bit more sous-bois in evidence, rather than flowers and nuts, but otherwise, the wine is evolving slowly and will certainly hold well for a few more years.
One of the best Meursaults I've ever drunk. Underscores how great '82 was for some Domaines. -

February 3, 2008 - Nose is somewhat oxidative but still sound. Palate is quite fat and the finish somewhat shrill. Ok but not great.
