  Tasted blind. Pop and poured. Drank over 1.5 hours over lunch at Mei-I Sushi.
  Appearance is clear, pale intensity, gold yellow colour. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of wet stone minerality, honey, lemon drops. Developed.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of wet stone minerality, butter cream, honey, citrus lemon drops. Long finish.
  Very good quality. My guess was spot on 10-12 year old Meursault Premier Cru. Good vintage. Nicely aged, though not the most complex example. Drink up now before the fruit goes down.

  Have drank two recently, one was going slightly oxidised. Second was still clean & fresh, developed, but not quite over the hill. Rich, mostly secondary character, some lively citrus notes still there. Drinking well, but drink up.

  Doesn't have that rich butter of some Meursault but fresh and fruity - very nice

  The deep yellow colour promises rich caramel flavours. On the palate: underripe green fruits, pineapple juice, green apple and mineral water. The finish is a battle between rich, soft caramel and strong acid. This bottle has an unpleasant oxidised character, like apple slices that have turned brown, plus a rusty, bitter, metallic note. This oxidised character - hopefully the fault of a bad cork - turns a potentially great wine into one that's drinkable, but not exceptional.

  Rich creamy and with waffle and hazelnut lemony goodness. Not bad.
