Meursault Bouchères – 2001 – Domaine Roulot


Dark gold. No hint of its seeming too aged. I swear the first thing I smell off it is scallops. A complex, developing aroma; orange, hazelnut, a touch of cumin; later on it moves into burnt caramel, before retreating to a “comfort zone” of orange (and the suggestion of pineapple). Lovely acid, discreet oak presence, intense fruit, lingering. Very classy.
