Saturday, January 16, 2021 - FWSG Puligny Grand Cru vs Meursault Genevrieres tasting. Semi-blind. Double samples. Tasted in Gabriel Standart.
Appearance is clear, medium intensity, gold colour. Legs.
Nose medium+ intensity with aromas of sweet cream ?caramel, weird turpentine, apricot, rich citrus lemon. Developed.
On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, medium alcohol (13%), medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of honeyed lemon curd, butter, ripe peach, apricot, minerality. Flashes of that weird turpentine. Good proper intense long finish.
Very good quality. Quite clearly aged Meursault. I actually quite like the interplay of butter and minerals and lemon curd fruit on the palate. Only the turpentine prevents me from liking this more.
