Meursault 2020The 2020 pours a medium golden hue deeper and warmer than younger vintages, reflecting both three years of bottle evolution and the richness of the vintage. The nose shows clear development: baked apple, poached pear, dried apricot, and quince paste, moving away from primary fruit into a more autumnal, settled expression. Meursaults hallmark hazelnut character is now fully expressed toasted nut, almond, and subtle praline tones forming a rich,

sappy and youthfully austere finish that is noticeably longer and more structured

rich and full-bodied wine with a note of candied fruits

exotic spices

not quite up to the level of the ethereal 2009

powerful and lively medium weight plus flavors that exhibit very good detail on the dusty

perfumed finish

impeccably well-balanced and highly persistent finish

moving from ripe stone fruit to hazelnut

The limestone-rich soils contribute pronounced mineral precision
