Tasting Note

Fine definition on the nose, then a softer-than-expected wash of fruit on the palate. Grapefruit and stone fruit notes to the fore, a juicy, fruit-driven, open-knit Meursault that should drink well on release. An east facing clay-limestone vineyard just below Genevrières. Aged in 20% new oak.
