Tasting notes
The 2020 Meursault Genevrières 1er Cru is much more forthcoming on the nose than some of its peers. It's well-defined and vigorous, with powdered chalk, white fruit and walnut scents. But everything is very nicely focused. The palate is balanced and smooth with a slightly honeyed texture. It is very assured, although it needs a little more mineralité towards the finish. Otherwise, this has real class. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

The 2020 Meursault Genevrières 1er Cru has a taut and fresh, slightly flinty bouquet, touches of lemon balm and cough candy in the background. The palate is very well balanced with a fine acidic spice, a bitter edge here, quite saline with a persistent finish. Excellent. Closure: Diam
