Bouchard Père & Fils Meursault Perrières 1er Cru 2014
This is very firmly reduced at present and it seems sufficiently firm that I would not be inclined to open a bottle before allowing at least a few years of bottle age. On the plus side, there is excellent mid-palate concentration to the intensely mineral-driven flavours that possess cuts-like-a-knife delineation, all wrapped in an overtly saline and tension-filled finale that is dry to the point of mild austerity. This beauty is clearly built to age and note well that it is going to need it.
