Meursault Charmes 2009

Here too there is a very mild touch of reduction that doesn't completely mask the ripe white and yellow orchard fruit aromas. There is first-rate intensity to the mineral-inflected medium-bodied flavors that evidence really lovely purity of expression on the explosive and driving saline-infused finish. This is clearly a Charmes from the upper part of the vineyard as there is none of the borderline excessive generosity of the lower portion. Outstanding
