Score 92+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2012

Pale yellow. Subdued but pure aromas of pear, fresh apple and honeysuckle, with a topnote of white flowers. Tangy and light on its feet, offering subtle flavors of lemon, lime, apple pie spices and stony minerality. Cool and tensile wine with nicely integrated oakiness. Finishes quite dry but not hard, with a lightly tannic impression and a repeating stony character. This penetrating, tightly coiled Meursault is built to age.

(malo almost finished): Cool, perfumed aromas of orange oil and pineapple. Smooth, pure and fresh, with slowly building saline minerality complicating the yellow fruit flavors. Finishes quite long, with a smoky nuance.
