Meursault, Les Boucheres, 1er Cru, 2021
A cool savoury stony nose that could only be Meursault. Wonderful richness on the palate and an extra level of luxuriant charm and texture. This is very lovely with a charming structure and plenty of layering and intensity. Lots of fruit and crushed stones on the finish. Very good indeed. An excellent vineyard, surrounded by Poruzots, Goutte d’Or and Genevrières and the biggest appellation in the Génot-Boulanger holdings. Only Roulot have have a bigger parcel of Bouchères than them.
critic reviews
The 2021 Meursault Les Bouchères 1er Cru has a nuanced bouquet, opening with yellow fruit, nutmeg and white tea scents, quite captivating and alluring. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. Fresh and linear, light mandarin and white pepper notes appear on the mid-palate whilst the finish feels complex and engaging. More mercurial than most, this Meursault should repay cellaring. Very fine. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
