2015 Meursault Blagny Premier Cru

Allen Meadows' Burghound: This also displays just enough wood to merit mentioning along with similar notes of smoky petrol, citrus and pear. The round and very rich flavors are quite generously proportioned thanks to the abundance of sappy dry extract where the balance is saved by the citrusy, dry and mineral-inflected finish. Even so, this is borderline blowsy today yet my sense is that it will tighten up once the effects of the bottling have worn off. We will of course see with time but either way, this should be approachable on the younger side. - Allen Meadows, Jun. 2017

Vinous: Pale, bright yellow. Complex stone and soft citrus fruit and mineral aromas are ripe but subdued. Generous, intense wine with citrus fruit and spice flavors showing lovely sucrosité as well as harmonious framing acidity. Finishes with a glyceral chewiness and hints of exotic soft citrus fruits but nicely maintains its balance. Thierry Matrot notes that the soil structure really makes this wine, "as it does the Chalumeaux in hot years." - Stephen Tanzer, Sep. 2017
