Really yummy. Not insane but very good. Orange rind on the nose with lemon oil and vanilla. Precise and focused on the palate

This wine is super nuanced and it really took on different notes throughout the evening depending on airtime, temp, and pairing. My favorite was after it had a good deal of airtime and was closer to room temp. I went back and checked old notes. It paired favorably in past to ‘17 Lafon. This bottle did not quite get there. Maybe it’s me but experiencing a lot of white burg bottle variation

Good Friday also means white burgundy x 2. 2nd bottle of the night and this Meursault compared really well to Lafon. More richness and depth to this and a touch of sweetness really finished the meal off right. Excited for the other Germain’s I just got

Citrusy, flowery, complex, balanced. Monsieur Germain does outstanding wines and was successful in 2013. Great white to drink or hold.

Lemons, honey and sage on the nose with a stunning pallet full of dense flavors of honey suckle and orange blossom with great acidity. Love this wine, and so does my chicken pot pie!

Beautiful white flower explosion on the nose. Huge material. Very structured. Minerality combined with power. Eloquent. Decadent.
