Meursault Les Perrieres 2012 Guy Roulot

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (95)

The 2012 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrieres, which is being matured in 30% new oak, has a sophisticated bouquet that is initially understated and only gradually unveils flint and granitic scents, followed by Granny Smith apple and white peach. The palate is simply gorgeous: beautifully balanced with pitch perfect acidity. It has ineffable focus and precision, nothing out of place, yet not an extravagant wine in any wine. The finish has a hint of feistiness that might become accentuated after bottling. Superb.
