Description

93-94 points Vinous

(on its finings): Lemon-yellow color. Ripe peach, hazelnut and vanillin oak on the classic Meursault nose. Boasts a terrific combination of refined texture and outstanding inner-palate tension, showing the flavor intensity and verve to support a long and graceful evolution in bottle. Finishes with outstanding lemon-zest cut and length. My style of Meursault, and downright electric in the context of the year. (ST) (9/2015)

92-94 points Allen Meadows, Burghound

A broad yet nuanced nose features notes of petrol, white peach, lime peel and acacia blossom. The exceptionally fresh and ultra-intense yet impressively refined medium-bodied flavors possess a sophisticated mouth feel as well as superb finishing depth and length. This strikingly stylish and balanced effort should also repay extended cellaring. (6/2015)

92-94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2013 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes has a straight down the line walnut- scented bouquet tinged with smoke and flint – voluminous like so many Meursault Charmes this year. There is very good intensity here. The palate is showing the new wood a little more than other premier crus from Lafon, but there is fine depth with veins of orange peel and tangerine, gradually building toward a generous walnut tinged finish. This is a very impressive Meursault that will surely come into its own after bottling. (NM) (12/2014)
