Meursault, Les Perrières, 1er Cru, 2022

This is quite classy, though more about expressive, inviting, open fruit than overt drive and intensity. A textural, fluid, flowing Perrières, not dripping in stones, with richer butter base notes and a salty finish. More depth here than the St Christophe; calm layers and plenty of rich, reverberating fruit that builds through the finish. From the higher part of the Perrières vineyard, so often particularly mineral even for Perrières.
