  Light gold, glinting. A delightful wine, precise, taut, all tingly and on edge - there is a nervous energy which is palpable. Superb light citrus, some flint, a slight hint of melted butter and white flowers. Lemon pith towards the middle, and the wine is ever so slightly effervescent which gives it a brisk and lingering finish. I love white burgundy like this, so enjoyable. From a magnum on Christmas Eve, seven of us enjoyed this with Saumon en croute.

  After a very modest showing on opening, it gradually opened up with air to reveal a kaleidoscope of candied fruit flavours: orchard, citrus, and even some tropical. Florentine biscuits? Meursault signature buttery nose and a light cream full-palate coating on the finish. Gun-steel and gun-flint minerality. In a very lovely place, but needs time after pouring and not to be served too cold! Good value, as far as Meursault goes.

  Started out too cold and was a pretty simple lemon and cold steel Chardonnay. However, when warmed up in the glass it became beautiful. Ripe lemon flesh, nuts, and great balanced acidity.

  Got this from Tom as a gift. Showed really well at our picnic on flagstaff today (with proper glasses!). Probably one the best white wines to have emerged from my cellar and shows what white burgundy can be. Wife loved it too.
  Mineral on the nose and palate. Great balance of the fruit , acidity and structure.

  Supple and smooth, light and lifted . Slight tannins effect, light delicate flavor of Asian pair. Elegant!
