Tasting notes
The 2019 Meursault Goutte d'Or 1er Cru has a rather obdurate bouquet that demands rigorous glass swirling. You have to eke out scents of citrus peel, crushed pebbles and hints of dandelion. It's attractive, though you yearn for more presence. The palate is well-balanced with a slightly viscous opening and quince and stem ginger touches. Cohesive toward the finish with well-integrated oak, this has a pleasing crescendo. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

The 2019 Meursault 1er Cru Goutte d'Or is lovely, bursting with aromas of pear, grapefruit and white flowers mingled with hints of nutmeg and struck match. Medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with lively acids and a ripe core of fruit despite a youthfully tight-knit structure, it shows plenty of promise.
