Roulot, Meursault Charmes

Roulot, Meursault Charmes(from a 1. 4 ha parcel of 70+ year old vines). Here too the admirably pure aromas are distinctly cool with its ripe nose of white peach and essence of pear that is trimmed in notes of subtle wood, spice and citrus zest. Once again there is fine volume to the solidly concentrated and sappy medium bodied flavors that possess first rate complexity and persistence on the balanced finale. A classic Charmes. 93 2023+

This vintage has maintained that sense of youthfulness and overall accessibility

and the wine isn't unapproachable

rust and blood orange

Like the Lavaut

This magnificent Chevalier should be a genuine stunner in 12 to 15 years

(this has the highest average vine age of these grands crus at 40+ years of age)

The textured

080 cases made

juicy acidity and a good finish

Finishes with substantial ripe tannins and excellent length

but much of that has been absorbed into the wine

A true long distance runner that will require every bit of a decade to reveal its full potential and perhaps longer
