Meursault Perrieres, Louis Jadot 2023

The 2023 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières (Domaine Louis Jadot) is terrific, unfurling in the glass with aromas of crisp orchard fruit, white flowers, toasted nuts and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, racy and layered, it's chiseled and mineral, with bright acids and a saline finish.

Mid lemon yellow. Plenty of weight on the nose, stones to follow perhaps? Yes indeed, on the palate. A huge wealth here, balanced between the more luscious fruit which stops just short of white peaches, and the mineral energy. Long finish of course. Drink from 2031-2040. Tasted Oct 2024. ****
