  • 2007 Pierre Matrot Meursault - France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault (6/26/2009)
    Decanted for 30 minutes, drank over the course of 2 hours. Slight reduction on the nose, but it blows off to reveal a very pure, very crystalline nose of lemon rind, wet rock and white flowers. The palate is still quite tight (duh, it’s an 07), but reveals almost overwhelming minerals, citrus rind, light butter and a touch of fresh herbs. The acidity is quite bracing, but the depth of the midpalate and the purity of the flavors really stand out. Hang on to these for a while, they aren’t going anywhere. The more Matrot I drink, the more I really appreciate the purity of their wines. 90+ (90 pts.)

Tx for the note. I’ve had good luck with Matrot lately and went for six of these after seeing AM’s notes.

I drank six bottles of the 2002 and enjoyed them very much. Great tension and Meursault character. The '07 sounds a lot like the '02 with the tension turned up to 11.
