Score 90/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2012

Bright, pale yellow. Ripe aroma of crystallized lemon peel lifted by high notes of lavender and violet. Round, ripe and rich, with a fine-grained texture to the flavors of citrus fruit, white peach and flowers. A very suave, silky village wine with good lift and verve. Nothing exotic or nutty about this Meursault, which is from estate fruit. Finishes with good chewy extract.

(an estate bottling): Lemon and lime aromas lifted by a minty quality. At once juicy and creamy, with the minty element carrying through on the palate and energizing the wine's finish. Good ripe acidity here.
