| Description: | 93 De / 17 Jr. The 2022 Clos de Murger is done in classic Meursault style with more weight than the Bourgogne from the same site, ripe apple fruit with hints of butter and hazelnut, and a lovely density. However, there is nothing overdone - the wine retains a balancing acidity, the use of new casks is very judicious (less than 10%), and the reductive handling (no batonnage) delivers a wine of elegance and finesse. The grapes are from the 2.58 hectares of vines in the village behind the family house.-Charles Curtis, Decanter. Cask sample. Classic Meursault on the nose. Ripe, generous, forward stone fruit with quite a lick of oak apparent. Creamy, luscious palate with acidity keeping the concentrated fruit ripeness in check. I would drink this in its youth but there is plenty to enjoy. Finishes with a mineral, saline edge which adds more freshness. Long finish.--Andy Howard, Mw, Jancis Robinson |
