  • 07s are in general in such a great spot right now and this was an extra tasty example. Fleshy forward fruit with cool soft acidity in that old school meursault style. Very well balanced and pleasurable now. Purchased from opposed to their normal domaine stuff.

  • - Yellow color with medium forming legs and aromas of hazelnut, vanilla, cut green grass, oak and cedar and has flavours of vanilla, grapefruit and melon - Buttery and round with an exceptional body. The acidity and fruit are well integrated but I feel like this could drink well for many more years. An excellent bottle for the seared tuna lunch!

  • Really very, very good. Great acidity, lively grapefruit with a wonderful richness and lingering finish. Need more....

  • This is really a lovely Meursault, and I should have purchased (much) more. The wine is simply built to age forever. Lovely pale straw color... Already drinkable with real pleasure, right now the profile is very dominated by firm acidity, citrus (lime more than lemon), apples, very striking mineral finish. I love the firmness and lift on this wine and I bet that it will age for 20-25 years without effort. If only I had another case to lose in the corner...
