  • 2004 Yves Boyer-Martenot Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières - France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault 1er Cru (12/13/2018)
    First off, no ox! The fruit is rich and somewhat concentrated, with a nice nerve of lemon, apple skin, and crushed stones streaking through. Ripe orchard stone fruits…creamy and crazy crystalline for its age…not as “perrieres” as the fatness throws you, but there is plenty of crushed rocks and saline minerality to accept. Age has brought on some honey, marzipan, dried apple, hazelnut butter…pretty flower and chalk dust florals, faint match strike…finishes with subtle oak barrel spice and smoked vanilla bean. Aging very well, and showing true to its appellation. (93 pts.)

Happy you had a great bottle. My sole botle was premox’d, four years ago.

What William said. I’ve had terrible luck with this producer. '02s; '04s, 05s…most terribly premoxed over the past ten years. I just don’t buy anymore.

I see some empty slots in the wine racking . . .
