James Suckling 95 pts! Beautiful nose of Amalfi lemon, candied lemon, vanilla and white flowers. Stunning combination of richness and vitality, the wine feeling light on the palate, in spite of the excellent concentration. Very long, mineral finish that displays wonderful silkiness. Drink or hold.
John Gilman 93+ The 2020 Meursault “Charmes” from Maison Joseph Drouhin is another absolutely superb bottle in the making. The bouquet is bright, precise and utterly classical in profile, delivering a mix of apple, pear, a touch of passion fruit, salty, chalky soil tones, almond and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, ripe and racy, with fine mid-palate depth, lovely focus and grip and most impressive backend energy on the long, complex and beautifully balanced finish. (Drink between 2022 - 2050)
