Delagrange – Meursault – 1999


A whiff of pineapple, together with mushrooms and cream; more giving and more fruit-driven than the 2005 we had recently. Shellfish come through eventually, not the first time I have spotted them in Meursault. Really lovely texture. Overall, still quite understated, but delicate and delicious. All my doubts about the 2005 cleared away; it just needed more time.

93/100
