Burghound (93)

Here too there is a noticeably restrained character to the strikingly layered nose that combines notes of acacia and citrus zest with those of iodine and mineral reduction. The racy but rich medium weight flavors are intensely mineral-inflected if not as dense as either the Charmes or the Poruzots on the balanced and sneaky long finish. This sleek effort should age well but also be approachable after only 5 to 6 years.

Robert Parker (96)

There are four barrels of the 2017 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières, a wine that unfurls in the glass with an incipiently complex bouquet of citrus oil, Anjou pear, hazelnut cream, wet stones and a subtly framing of smoky reduction. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and incisive, with amplitude and concentration to match the Purozot and Charmes but a decidedly more tensile, reserved structural profile, with a firm, tight-knit core that will demand and reward bottle age.
