The 2021 Meursault-Blagny Sous La Dos d'Ane 1er Cru demonstrates more reduction on the nose, although there is a quality wine beneath, delineated and displaying a sense of energy. The palate is predictably also quite reduced. Balanced with a keen line of acidity, but at the moment that reduction denudes this Meursault of personality. Therefore, afford this three or four years in bottle to "lift the veil." Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.HK$9,890.00 -

The 2020 Meursault Clos du Cromin is tightly-wound on the nose and needed coaxing from the glass, light citrus lemon, Golden Delicious and earthy tones gradually unfurl. The palate is well balanced with fine depth, a slightly resinous texture that leads to a pithy, wild peach-tinged finish. Give this just a year in bottle.HK$3,365.00 -

(the yield here was a very low 25 hectoliters per hectare owing to hail; no new oak): Inviting high-pitched scents of orange juice, white flowers, ginger and gunflint. Fine-grained and sharply delineated, saturating the palate with youthful flavors of soft citrus fruits, spices and stone. Impeccably balanced but backward today. A lovely essence of Meursault, and an outstanding village wine.HK$1,270.00 -

The 2020 Meursault Cuvée Tête de Murger has a well-defined nose, although I was expecting a little more presence and energy compared to previous vintages that I have tasted over the years. The palate is well balanced and shows more gumption, fine acidity with a touch of ginger, well-defined with red apple, nectarine and orange pith on the finish. Just give it some time for the aromatics to open.HK$910.00 -

Not yet in bottle. This is significantly more backward. The nose in particular. But then this blend of Casse Tete and Murger de Monthelie is always the most profound. It shows in the density of ripe orchard fruit on the palate, and the energy of the fruit at the finish. The vin de garde among the Meursaults. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted Dec 2024.HK$1,025.00 -
(1x75cl) 2017Vinous (89-91)
(just a single new oak barrel out of 13): Deeper-pitched and more brooding on the nose than the Tillets. Fat and thick on entry but surprising acidity gives it a distinctly austere, clenched quality. Finishes tactile, chewy and long, with a fresh lemony edge to its ripe stone fruit flavors. This youthfully disjointed wine will need longer to knit than the Tillets. Marion Javillier presented me with a sample representative of the ultimate blend but noted that the wine had not yet been assembled.HK$980.00 -

In bottle. An attractive mid lemon yellow. Not as immediately forthcoming as Les Tillets, though still showing a compact white orchard fruit. Fresh apples, quite intense. With a certain crunchiness. Laid back but with plenty in reserve. Drink from 2028-2032. Tasted Dec 2024.HK$785.00 -
Vinous (89-92)
(aging in one-third new oak): Sexy, restrained aromas of yellow peach and spices, with a note of lime emerging with air. Then juicy and sharply chiseled on the palate, showing more citrus than yellow fruits and a repeating spicy character. A firm spine of acidity and minerality gives this leanish wine clarity and lift and draws out the finish. Production here was around 50 hectoliters per hectare, or close to normal, according to Marion Javillier. I like this style.HK$4,160.00 -

Mid lemon yellow, with a most attractive ripe fruit nose, still with its characteristic hint of lime blossom. Splendid energy on the palate, with a hillside thread providing limestone clarity, and just a little fresh pepper at the finish. In bottle. Drink from 2027-2031. Tasted Dec 2024.HK$995.00 -
