Reviewed January 2024This wine's exuberant acidity has a laser-like grip on the palate, and it's not letting go of the lean, taut fruit. There are citrus peels, yellow peaches, white raspberries and oak toast. The profusion of scents and the integration of the palate will make this dangerously accessible early on. Channel your self-discipline for several years at the very least!

James Suckling
Rich and deep with stacks of ripe stone fruit illuminated by a citrusy and mineral acidity that deftly counterbalances the full body. Long, precise finish.

The 2022 Meursault Les Goutte d'Or 1er Cru shows a slight reduction on the nose. The palate is very focused and quite intense, good nervosité here, quite Charmes in style with a weighty, slightly honeyed finish that lingers in the mouth. This should age very well in bottle. (NM)

Lemon and lime in colour. The most reserved nose of these three (Bouchères, Porusots, Gouttes d’Or), with a well-rounded fruit on the palate, then ripe apple with a touch of plum on the palate. Greater depth of fruit on the palate, something of a dried fruit character according to Frédéric Weber. The aforementioned trio differ in style but are very hard to separate in quality. Drink from 2029-2035.
Notes
Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "The width and faint spice of fine Meursault! Nicely structured but melting and fluid too. That’s just a beautifully shaped wine – one that’s far too easy to drink. Simply excellent!" (10/2023)
