Lighting was dim so could not evaluate color well, but it appeared to be light golden. Vanilla, citrus and stone on the nose. Very nice on the palate with creamy citrus, vanilla and mineral but in addition to vanilla some oak notes. Wine was Excellent but could have been Outstanding with more deft oak.

Crossed our finger this wasn't premoxed and it surely was not! Gourgeous classic Meursault nose of hazelnuts with butter and citrus notes along with some minerality. Rich and round, but still with good acidity to give it drive. Nice minerally finish and a nice pairing with butter poached with melted leeks and king trumpet mushrooms.

Not premoxed! My streak with 2002 Colin-Deleger continues. Very good to excellent aged Meursault. Nice light golden color, almond, lemon and vanilla on the nose, good nuttiness on the palate. Perfect accompaniment to crunchy tempeh with lemon and mushrooms.

No preox! Classic aged Meursault w nuts, butter, yellow flowers, and tension! Lots of youth left in it.

I think the bottle was damaged as the wine showed sherry notes on top of the prominent botrytis. A less than perfect bottle. Bought via gray market
