Tasting notes
Pure aromas of lemon and crushed stone. Sappy and dense, communicating an impression of tightly coiled citrussy energy. Complex, harmonious Meursault with fruit sweetness nicely supported by savory minerality. Has the concentration to age slowly and gracefully.

The 2014 Meursault Virieuls has a similar nose to the Village, although here there is a touch of precision and there is something earthier, more tertiary about the aromatics. The palate is crisp and fresh with vibrant acidity, and very elegant with hints of tropical fruit (grapefruit and passion fruit) lending a little joie-de-vivre on the finish. This is totally sublime.
Nervy and muscular but sweet overall. Really racy and fine. Smoky but not excessively so. Hint of flowers. Tense and citrus. (JR)
