Meursault, Clos du Cromin, 2021

An engaging salty, savoury quality on the nose. This is concentrated at its core with fleshy lemon notes and enough salt and acidity to keep it tonic. Energising Meursault. Saline and full of white fruit and citrus pulp. There’s plenty of plump fruit, but its firm core keeps it feeling focussed. A vineyard that works particularly well in warm, dry vintages because of the clay content in the soil, and then after about 40cm you hit the mother rock, adding a balancing sense of complexity to the naturally full, open-knit fruit that characterises this wine.
