Meursault Perrieres, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey 2010

An airy, cool and quite pure nose evidences the mineral reduction nuances that one typically finds in a fine Perrières together with pear and floral aromas. The textured and stony flavors seem to be extracted directly from liquid rock before culminating in a chiseled, lemony and cuts-like-a-knife finish of simply superb length. This linear effort will also need plenty of time before realizing its full, and considerable, potential.

Locked up tight on the nose. Then thick, large-scaled and powerful in the mouth, with an extraordinarily tactile palate feel to the pineapple and crushed stone flavors. Packed with dry extract. Boasts the concentration, fine-grained texture and sheer sappy density of a grand cru. This brilliant wine finishes with uncanny rising length. I'd love to revisit it in ten years.
