We are getting close to the end of quarantine tastings. Two friends and I shared these three wines.
A few other wines opened by other virtual attendees I was unable to taste included: (1) Mikulski 2012; (2) Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey 2010, (3) Coche-Dury 2009 DAMN (!) ; (4) Michel Bouzereau 2013; and (5) Pierre Morey 2009.
2015 Yves Boyer-Martenot Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault 1er Cru
Floral with ripe apple and plenty of toasted almond and hazelnut that provided classic Meursault character. Rich, plump and very tasty. Slightly lacking acidity for me, making the finish slightly flat. Best to enjoy over the next three years.

2007 Albert Grivault Meursault 1er Cru Clos des Perrières 93 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault 1er Cru
Ripe apple with toasted almond and almond butter with an intense richness that works so well with the bright energy at the finish. So prototypically Meursault, but with the density that might hint at Grand Cru. Long, harmonious finish, this is so good now and likely to drink well for at least 5 more years, quite possibly 10.

Nutty and rich but way past its peak.
