Whiffs of Asian style tea and mineral reduction sit atop the naturally exotic aromas of mostly white fleshed fruit and acacia. The middle weight flavors possess a slightly finer texture on the suave and caressing flavors that terminate in a mildly tangy and bright finale that exhibits excellent persistence. Lovely.
The 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrières (Domaine Louis Jadot) bursts from the glass with aromas of green orchard fruit, toasted nuts, vanilla pod and pastry cream. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and elegantly textural, with a generous core of fruit, lively acids and a flavorful, oak-inflected finish.
The 2019 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrières (Domaine Louis Jadot) opens in the glass with aromas of pear, spring blossom, green apple, fresh bread and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, layered and lively, with good depth at the core, lively acids and a long, oak-inflected finish, this has also turned out well.
The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, smooth and harmonious, leading to a very persuasive, intense nutty/spicy finish. This is a lovely Meursault that should age with style. Excellent.
