Genevrieres Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay

A true unicorn never to be made again and whose quantities dwindle by the day, BBV Genevriéres which can be hit (really hit) or miss (advanced) is absolutely stunning tonight, disregarding the frost laden vintage and firing on all cylinders with massive concentration and killer floral and yellow fruit intensity that’s seamlessly balanced with layered minerality and racy citrusy acids. It wafts from the glass and the decanter with waves of ripe orchard fruit, popcorn, hazelnut and exotic spices. Texturally brilliant, with plenty of tension and serious length, terroir and producer shine in this beauty. A perfect BBV at EMP 🥳💫

So round and ready for such a young Meursault. Wow.

Very young. Wow. Saturating and long. Coche comparisons are fair.

Very Coche dury like. Serous bottle still young .

Showing signs of oxidation but still tasty.

This has not lost a step since last trying a btl several years ago. Fresh, with notes of lemon, pear, flint, smoke, mineral, saline & white flower.

Pre-mos

No score

Coche like thats showing good intensity with power & finesse notes of lemon, citrus, saline hint of sulfur, matchstick, mineral & nut butter.

This was a classy Genevrieres showing power & finesse with notes of pear, citrus, mineral in a linear & racy style. Excellent!
