May 24, 2020 - Light-medium gold color. PNP, drank 3 glasses over 2 hours. This starts out a little slow and seemed a little oxidative. Everything blew off as this opened up over 20 minutes. The nose has buttery lemon creme brulee, wooly, wet stones, lemon, nuanced integrated oak. The palate is full bodied, tart lemon, lemon oil, lemongrass, wet stone, hints of vanilla panna cotta and butter with nice oak influences. This opened up into a nicely complex wine with a medium plus finish. 92+pts.

April 2, 2020 - Showing a deeper golden color, but still very fresh and vibrant. This very clearly speaks to its terroir, with the slightly oily, nutty, pine nut and hazelnut flavors of Meursault and the strong mineral notes of Les Perrieres. Rich fruit is lifted by medium+ acidity, keeping this all in balance. A complex wine, but not as good as some of the best Les Perrieres. More of a "classic" expression than a "wow" sort of wine. Drink now, or hold for as long as you are comfortable with premox (which this showed zero evidence of) risk.

October 12, 2019 - Bottle 4 - very nice Meursault which is in a lighter mineral style which makes it very easy to drink. Drinking well now so fell free to tuck in now as I think it is happily in its drinking window. Nothing to dislike and if you prefer a lighter Meursault then this is a winner

August 17, 2019 - Meursault Perrieres blind tasting 1988-2011: Very classic nose of pop corn, cream, oak, oyster shell. Crisp and mineralic palate. Everybody loved this and it stole the flight. 95-96

April 25, 2019 - Usual Meursault attributes without being exceptional. For the premier Meursault field from Drouhin expected a little more but still very nice
