justerini & brooks tasting note

A very precise, crystalline note, and waves of extract and grip on the palate. Similarly tightly wound to Charmes Dessus, but there’s a greater sense of energy and focused power here, a point as opposed to a wash. Yellow fruit and stones on the finish. Superb. From two parcels within Perrières Dessus, just above their Bourgogne Terroir d'Exception, planted with 55-year-old and 45-year-old vines. Aged in 30% new oak.

critic reviews

93-95/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2023 Meursault Les Perrières 1er Cru has a fragrant nose with much more mineralité than the Charmes-Dessus, nuanced and introspective at first but gaining intensity in the glass. The palate is well balanced with orange pith and nectarine, cohesive and lightly spiced with good weight on the finish. You can feel this Les Perrières tingling long after it has departed. Very fine.
