Critic Tasting Notes: "The 2020 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières unwinds in the glass with scents of sweet citrus fruits, white flowers, wet stones and struck match. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's a concentrated, broad-shouldered wine underpinned by racy acids and chalky dry extract, uniting sun-kissed fruit with mineral drive." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (95/100)
