Louis Max, Porusot, Meursault 1er Cru, Burgundy, 2010

Tasting: Meursault 1er Cru 2010

Ripe buttery nose, apple and apricot, lacks a little zest but has ample fruit. Good attack, crisp acidity, lively and lifted, taut and wiry, and far more citric than the nose. Has admirable zip and persistence, and very good length.

Tasting: Meursault 1er Cru 2010

Deep yellow colour. Aromas of Caramac bar and dominated by oak. The palate is full bodied with medium acid and length. There is more to come maybe, but not very exciting.

Tasting: Meursault 1er Cru 2010

Quite broad nose blending yellow fruits and slightly phenolic oak. Rich, even slightly sweet on the palate, surprising for the 13% alcohol. Broad and straightforward wtih good natural acidity to hold it, but lacking in complexity both now and for the future.
