2017 Meursault Les Perrieres

The 2017 Meursault Les Perrières 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet that features lime flower and crushed stone but lacks some intensity compared to its peers. Early picking? The palate is well balanced, taut and fresh, with a saline entry and fine acidity. There is a little sharpness toward the citric finish, although there is also satisfying length. Fine and quite elegant. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune.
