the last bottle of the case....creamy, pineapple, pear, anise nose - all very clean. Plushness and fresh fruit with enough of the necessary acid, given the sweetness of the fruit. This has integrated all the oak and aged (barely) beautifully with only hint of butterscotch in the empty glass.

This wine was in perfect shape with a fine green gold colour and a rich nose of yellow peach and nectarines, green apples, touches of honey and lashings of oatmeal. The palate is rich and flavoursome with lovely fruit and oatmeal leading into a strong grippy mineral finish to provide balance. Ultimately this will always be a rich, borderline exotic product of the vintage but its delicious when oxidation does not rear its unpleasant head !

(Bouchard Père et Fils Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières) Light medium golden yellow color; very nice, bready, lime, lemon, lemon blossom nose; a little tight, rich, poised, ripe lemon, mineral, apple, light toast palate, needs another two years or so; long finish 93+ points
(Bouchard Père et Fils Meursault Les Genevrières) Here is a vineyard that that was picked on the first day of the vintage. The nose is wide and nicely mineral. Again there is a soft and rather oily texture; it’s rich and slightly honeyed, but the overall effect is quite elegant. It seems more understated than the Gouttes, certainly without the ‘boom’ of that wine’s finish.
