John Gilman: 91 Points

The 2017 Meursault villages was already racked to tank just prior to the start of harvest in 2018 and was destined for bottling in December. The wine is an excellent AC offering up a precise and classy bouquet of apple passion fruit chalky soil tones a hint of coconut spring flowers and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep full-bodied pure and quite vibrant in personality with a good core superb focus and grip and a long bouncy and nicely taught finish. Good juice

Now racked to tank as the wine was ready and the barrels were needed for 2018. Fresh pale colour the fruit is discreet at first with a lovely classical Meursault mouthfeel length and purity yet with some charm and flesh. No great acidity here so will be approachable young.
