Tasting notes
Pale, bright yellow. Reduced nose needs air. Silky, concentrated Meursault combines sucrosité and power, not to mention the typical roundness of this bottling. Tactile, pliant yet youthfully tight citrus and stone fruit flavors finish with excellent persistence. Jobard told me that the 2009 version of this wine is drinking well right now.

The 2015 Meursault En la Barre was showing a lot of reduction on the nose, although it will disappear by the time it is racked. The palate demonstrates fine weight in the mouth, modest complexity with fine acidity, although I would like to see more details and mineralité on the finish by the time of bottling.
Healthy pale yellow. Brisk lemony aroma reveals a lingering trace of malic acidity. Opulent and sweet on the attack, then more closed in the middle palate. Finishes dry and long, with lovely grip.
