As usual, 2019 Meursault Villages comes from several parcels including Clos de la Baronne, Sous la Velle and Crotot. It has a well-defined bouquet, a little spicier than previous vintages. Timid at first, but finds its voice with aeration. Hints of lemongrass and chai complement the citrus fruit. The palate is well balanced with good concentration and slightly waxy in texture. Fine depth with that spicy leitmotif return on the finish. Give this 18-24 months in bottle.

The 2021 Meursault Village has a lively, minerally, almost flinty bouquet that is beautifully focused. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and fresh, almost steely with a vigorous and persistent, saline finish. This is excellent and punches above its weight. Bravo.

Bright yellow. Musky, primary aromas of lemon, crushed stone and minerals; the most classic of these 2008s to this point. Then citric, stony and firmly built, with lovely inner-mouth perfume and purity. This tastes like healthy grapes.

The 2020 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru emerges from a 70-year-old parcel in Charmes Dessous that measures ¼ hectare. Apricot, dried flowers, candied ginger and light tropical accents all meld together effortlessly through to the long, beautifully articulated finish. A wine of impeccable class and pedigree, the 2020 is beautifully balanced from start to finish. It’s a total knock-out in 2020. (Tasted by Antonio Galloni)

The 2019 Meursault À Mon Plaisir Clos du Haut Tesson has a fragrant bouquet with pressed white flowers, touches of jasmine and yellow plum. This shows slightly more reductive traits compared to the Les Luchets and Meix Chavaux. The palate is vibrant on the entry, taut and fresh. Fine acidity with an edgy nectarine and lemon zest driven finish. There is a surfeit of energy here, its tenderness belying its power.

The 2020 Meursault À Mon Plaisir Clos du Haut Tesson offers a beguiling combination of fruit intensity, minerality and structure. Orchard fruit, ginger, spice, menthol, chamomile, crushed rocks and tropical accents give the Tesson an exotic flair to play off its dynamic personality. Readers will find a Meursault of uncommon texture and pedigree. Incidentally, a recent magnum of the 1992 was positively stellar. (Tasted by Antonio Galloni)

Very ripe, musky stone fruit aromas come across as a bit less lively than those of the Meix Chavaux and perhaps more typical of this very warm vintage. Distinctly more yellow-fruity and spicy in the mouth, showing less extract richness but a supple texture and a touch of warmth. This wine appears to be evolving faster than the Meix Chavaux and should drink earlier.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)

Picked on 27th August, 13.0% alcohol, 4.30TA and 3.24pH. More lemon than lime in the colour. There is more weight of fruit here, more of a golden glow through the middle, with a citrus streak to finish. Graceful as much as generous. Pleasing finish on sweet lemon fruit.

Vinous (92+)

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 2019 Meursault Les Vireuils has a pretty bouquet with orchard fruit, hints of apricot and just a touch of almond coming through with aeration. The palate is well balanced with an edgy opening, quite sharp at first, orange zest and a touch of tangerine. A citric finish just needs a little more length. This will develop with bottle age but I would afford it 3 to 4 years in the cellar.
