The 2016 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes will actually be "domaine" from the next vintage, so this is the last from purchased fruit. It has one of the more expressive aromatics from Jadot with plenty of walnut and smoke aromas blossoming in the glass. There is good vigor here. The palate is well balanced with quite a rich opening, then the acidity begins to bite in the middle and keeps this Meursault Charmes on its toes and does not let the concentration overpower on the finish. This may surpass the 2015 Charmes with two or three years in bottle.
