The 2018 Meursault Village is blessed with an exquisite bouquet. Fleeting notes of citrus peel, lime cordial and orange blossom unfurl in the glass, maybe a little Puligny-like in style. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity counterbalancing its tropical tones of clementine and melon, and bitter lemon imparting tension on the finish. This is a very well-crafted Meursault for the vintage that translates barely any of that summer's heat. Excellent.In Bond€92.00 -
