Tasting notes
A real basket of fruits on the nose: fresh pear, Granny Smith apple, orange, grapefruit. Then juicy and leanish in the mouth, tightly wound and in a drier style than the foregoing samples. Not yet showing a lot of personality, but finishes with good subtle length.

The 2002 Meursault Goutte d’Or has a nose composed of white pepper, ginger, poached pears, and assorted spices. Medium-bodied, powerful, muscular, and broad, this is an intense, satiny-textured wine packed with poached pears, yellow plums, nutmeg, and buttered toast. Its extended finish reveals additional layers of poached, spiced pears. Drink it over the next 7 years. Importers: Various including Classic Wine Imports, Boston, MA; tel.
