  I think these are getting sweeter? Just a couple bottles left from a case, and we are getting farther away from Perrieres, and closer to Aubert? Kind of kidding, but kind of not. Maybe it's all that energy charged OR Chard I've been drinkin of late. Anyway...this is still top notch Meursault here! Sappy orchard fruits, with a drizzle of honey and sprinkled sea salt...SUCH pretty lime/white flower blossom florals...chalky crushed limestone...little more toasted marshmallow...precise and beaming with fresh juiced citrus...dry extract...very broad and mouth filling...even a little oily viscosity. I mean this wine is LOADED with flavor and Meursault-ness...I just wish it had a tad bit more Perrieres and less sweetness...but nitpicking I guess. Would love to try this one in 20 more years!

  Served blind. Clearly above all the other whites from tonight, opened by our host Ken. Light yellow in the glass.
  
  Nose of beeswax, cream, lemon, vanilla, lime zest and honeysuckle florals.
  
  Palate of a medium mouth feel, with wonderful acidity, lemon, stone fruit with a lime ending. Ken, this was one of the most beautiful whites I've had in the last 10 years. Thank you for opening this one for us, tonight. Beats the Aubert, hands down.....and I love Aubert!

  Killer showing and probably WOTN among a bunch of fun stuff. This has fanned out and is now pretty grand and very Meursault, while still retaining plenty of acid and dry extract. Grand cru presence, class, and length. Everything one could hope for with some more room to improve. My score may be too low.

  Wow this was absolutely on fire. Lovely nectarine notes, lemon, with beautiful balance, acidic presence. Top class Burgundy.

  (Blind tasting)
  Medium-fullish, complex nose. Very good depth. Densely fruity, almost tropical with hints of pineapple. Gently oaky. A load of wet stone minerality. Very rich after time in glass.
  Fullish, rich, fat and very fresh palate. Epitome of white Burg. Yellow orchard fruit with tropical hints. Toasty and minerally. Gun-powder complexity. Very long and balanced. Very good concentration and very good grip.
  WOTN in the small white 2014 1er cru Burg tasting. In it's beginning drinking window.
