Meursault Genevrieres 1er Cru 2018

The 2018 Meursault Genevrières 1er Cru comes from a single 0.50-hectare parcel of vines. This has a very feisty bouquet, quite feral compared to its peers, showing just a touch of warmth compared to the more refined Poruzots. The palate is more "controlled" but still quite rich and maybe overly generous at the expense of tension and nervosité, especially on the finish. I would like to revisit this once in bottle.

Score: 89 - 91
