Bourgogne, Blanc, Terroir d'Exception,

(this parcel just above Clos des Perrières was never classified as Perrières premier cru as it used to be a quarry; although the soil is of similar quality, Château de Meursault is allowed to produce up to 60 hectoliters per hectare): Pungent aromas of citrus peel and flowers. Penetrating and sharply focused but not austere owing to the sweetness of the wine's ripe citrus fruits and to rich buffering extract. Finishes wonderfully rich, long and firm. This goes way beyond its humble appellation (and was indeed presented after the Meursault Les Grands Charrons) but then so does its price.
