Vinous (93)

The 2022 Meursault Les Vireuils comes from a parcel with a northeast exposure in a cool microclimate. This has an attractive nose: Golden Delicious, lanolin, hints of honeysuckle in the background. The palate is very well-balanced with a waxy texture. There’s plenty of extract here and good weight on the back end with an almost Southern Rhône-like pithiness. Very fine.

Burghound (93)

A cool, pure and beautifully airy nose combines notes of just sliced citrus, acacia blossom, hazelnut and a touch of wet stone character. There is lovely delineated and tension to the medium weight flavors that possess an almost aggressive minerality that adds a sense of lift to the balanced, youthfully austere and impressively long finale. This chiseled effort is terrific for its level and absolutely one to consider, in short, it's textbook Vireuils.

Jasper Morris (93)

A little more in the colour here, a ripe bouquet with a touch of bacon fat reduction. Not excessive. This fills the mouth very nicely then stretches out with more tension behind, a touch of fresh citrus along with some orange zest, clearly good mineral acidity throughout. Jean-Marc notes the good plant selection in his Vireuils. Drink from 2028-2034. Tasted Oct 2023.
