A more floral if somewhat less spice-suffused nose speaks mostly of red raspberry, soft earth and a hint of exotic tea. The sleek and utterly delicious medium weight flavors possess equally good energy that carries over the youthfully austere, long and mildly rustic finish. This is somewhat firmer than the Monthélie and a wine that will need at least a few years to unwind. I would further note that this too is unusually good for what it is.
The 2021 Meursault Rouge is beautiful, bursting with aromas of spicy berries, orange zest, plums and smoke, followed by a medium-bodied, lively and perfumed palate. This fragrant, supple wine will be approachable on release.
The 2021 Meursault Rouge has an attractive, well-defined bouquet with wild brambly red fruit, touches of orange rind and 5-spice. Quite complex considering this is Village Cru and maybe more refined than the Auxey-Duresses. The palate is medium-bodied and well-balanced with fine tannins. It is strict and linear, not long, but with plenty of freshness, so it feels long on the finish.
