Decanted this wine for about a half hr to let it shine and come to room temp. Slight golden color with crisp and focused nose (not much in terms of fruit but lots of citurs and minerality). On the palate it was acidic with med body w/lots of mineralitiy and citus fruits with a minimal oak prescence. Drank extremely well.

2008 Meursault Blind Tasting (My Home): Very shy nose. Quite forward upon opening but this is a wine that needs a litle time to blossom. Green tropical fruit. Most acidic of the 1st 4 Meursault (and in a good way). Slightly lactic on the finish at first which became more focused and sharper with air. Overall a very elegant and very nice Meursault, maybe more Puligny like than Meursau-esque.
