2004 Pierre Morey Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières

Deepish gold.
Very vegetal nose, madeirised, some raisiny sweetness, potatoes!
Loads of oak with no taste of fruit, just about drinkable but not memorable.

Very light silver green.
Buttery nose with a hint of age.
Still very youthful tasting, citrus fruit, somewhat oaky in the mid palate suggesting this wine needs to sit in the cellar for a while.
