Tasting notes
Pale, bright yellow. Reticent, very pure aromas of ripe pear and flowers. Classy and linear in the mouth, offering intense but shy flavors of lime and lavender. Penetrating-verging-on-sharp and still a bit youthfully inscrutable but boasts terrific energy and refinement for the vintage. The flavors of citrus oil and spices build slowly on the very long finish. This wine should evolve gracefully.

The 2013 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrières has a touch of licorice coming through on the nose that seems persuasively exotic for a Meursault. The palate is fresh with lime and white peach, touches of tangerine surfacing as it gently fans out on the finish. More sedate than Mounier's other Meursault '13s but undeniably long in the mouth. This is an impressive Meursault.
