Wow, what a wine. Amazing how a village can age! An amazing combination between tertiary (mushroom, sherry, nutty) notes with also typical Meursault shining through (white peach, toast, ripe apple, smoke), followed by honey and minerality. Medium+ acidity with a long nutty Meursault finish. It held up during 3 days!

Nowhere near as good as last bottle. High acid and a bitter note of asparagus. No oxidation is the good news but this was uninspiring disjarred. Even so there was nice minerality and a reasinably pleasant wine overall - just punching under it's weight.

Smoky minerals, lots of citric acid with a nutty finish. Medium/light bodied for a Meursault. Perfectly mature, an exceptional villages. Even better on day two, no sign of oxidatiion. The wine did not handle the powerful smoky aromas from my potage st germain very well, would probably go better with fat fish like Salmon.

Very good, tertiary notes but lots of citrus.

Bottle variation! Nothing technically wrong. It just was not as good (concentration, complexity) as the two previous bottles.
