Medium yellow. Mineral, beeswax lemon confit nose. Initially this seemed a bit short but it really filled out on the palate as it warmed. Striking minerality, with a hefty lemon confit mid-palate and very pleasant body stretching out over a medium final. This still has legs and went beautifully on its own. Don't serve too cold.

Notes from memory. This was less impressive than I thought it might be - subdued nose, rather lean and short. Hopefully a poor bottle - not premoxed in any way just had the feeling this was punching well under its weight given the other TNs here. NR based on tonight's tasting.

This is not an altogether typical Meursault -- with more emphasis on vibrancy and less on richness, more tropical fruit and less hazelnut and butter -- but it offers a lot of pleasure nonetheless. The elevated acidity suggests that it still has a fair amount of development ahead.

Medium dark yellow. Ripe lemon curd nose. Minerality, acidity and a lemon brioche palate. Good length and balance.
