The Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes Dessus was showing even better in bottle, unwinding in the glass with notes of pear, citrus zest, wheat toast, nutmeg, and anise. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and textural, there's more substance and structure here than I perceived, with plenty of racy acidity too. Long and saline, this is a serious Charmes. Germain told me that 80% of this cuvée is produced from the Domaine’s holdings, with the balance coming from a parcel they farm and harvest.
