Domaine du Chateau de Meursault, Charmes, Meursault 1er Cru, Burgundy, 2010

Tasting: Meursault 1er Cru 2010

Muted apricot nose. Rich, bold, assertive, very concentrated with a good deal of spice. It may lack elegance, but has power and complexity to compensate. Good length.

Golden yellow hue. Ripe mango and cinnamon spice on the nose. The palate is rich and full bodied; lots of texture and salty minerals, this has lots of class and potential.

Quite full, herby, yellow summer fruits. Naturally rich (14% alcohol) and so quite fleshy, but this is balanced by lemony acidity. A good, slightly sweet,broad wine that will develop well but never gain too much finesse.
