So much better than my previous bottle. On the nose, dense tangerine, honey, and a touch of vanilla inflected smoke, followed by some cooling herbs. On the palate, fantastic acidity, soft tangerine and guava, great depth and lovely texture. Mature and fantastic.

Pop and pour. Showed a bit of oxidation..I guess a touch premoxed given this is.an 07, but not so bad this was not enjoyable. Clear meursault.nose with smoke and minerals, and a honeyed golden character. On the palate, showed a bit tired, with softer acidity than expected, with nice honeyed nuts and a touch of citrus. Ok finish..definitely disappointing given my experience with other Girardin wines.

Kraftig intensitet med knust stein, røyk, smørpopkorn og svakt sitrus. Flott og stram munnfølelse med flott konsentrasjon og friskhet. Fin balanse. Bare ungdommen fortsatt. Lang strukturert finish som sitrer nydelig i munnhulen. Dette var virkelig lekkert. 92-93p

Flowers, apples and pears mix with brioche and light butter on the nose. Some development but still young. Lovely citrus notes. On the palpate quite intense with bright acidity, beautiful detail and a stony, mineral backbone. Also a lot of honeyed flowers, reminding me of blooming honeysuckle on a summers eve. Great length, finishes with an burst of citrusinfused mineral. A bit lighter in style than the Genevrières but I have not tried them head to head, so it's hard to tell which one I prefer. Anyway, an excellent wine in it's own right.

Dette er en strålende Meursault. Har en flott balanse mellom syre og fedme. Preget av sjø og mineraler, samt litt fat uten at det er skjemmende(noen vil muligens synes det). God vin til breiflabb, smørflyndre og div skaldyr fra grillen. Selv om den koster litt (drøye 500,-)er den verd pengene.
