Aromas of orange oil, peach, pastry cream, freshly baked bread, and hazelnuts -framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction - preface the 2019 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières, a medium to full-bodied, layered, and concentrated wine that's deep, rich, and dramatic, with lively acids and a long, penetrating finish. This, too, has turned out brilliantly.
The 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières has turned out especially well, unfurling in the glass with a youthfully reserved nose of crisp yellow orchard fruit, citrus oil, iodine, smoke, and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, chalky, and inactive, it's deep and textural, built around fine structuring dry extract and tangy acids. More immediately approachable than the stunning 2017 rendition, it's nevertheless a serious, age-worthy wine.
The Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières is performing brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with a textbook bouquet of citrus oil, crisp green apple, Anjou pear, mandarin oil, crushed chalk and struck flint. Medium to full-bodied, satiny, and incisive, it's muscular but tight knit, with racy acids, excellent concentration, and a long, mineral finish.
