New wine. From lower sections, to give a richer, fuller style of Chardonnay. Two barrels, one new. Tank sample. Just a hint of reduction, beneath which is a blend of stone fruit and yellow apple. Medium-full bodied with a bit of chew, the new oak is more evident in a nutty, spicy mid palate. Creamy finish. (TJ)

The maiden 2018 Meursault Sous la Velle has a well-defined bouquet with crushed pebble scents filtering through the apple blossom and orange peel aromas. The palate is taut on the entry and very citric, and perhaps needs a little more weight on the finish, which I suspect will develop by the time it is bottled.
