Was worried this might be OTH and shocked to see that WS says it will last to 2020. Color me surprised. Not a hint of oxidation or "jeez, this would have been nice 5 years ago."
Give it a solid 90. Nice round flavor profile, with apples and tropical fruit flavors. Acids muted. Opens with air and warmth. Held up and even improved during the maybe 90 minutes it was open. Not typical meursault in my limited experience but quite nice.

Rhones 20+ Years Old (Western Chicago IL Suburbs): Tasted double blind. Faded, tired, 5-10 years past its prime. Couldn't even identify as Chardonnay or white Burgundy.
