Pale color. Lemon zest nose. Meyer lemon, lemon cream, and dusty minerality. This is a good wine.

Well made and balance Meursault. Not largely complex, but a solid wine. Very enjoyable.

Acidic acid head! Reticent nose with beautiful color. Firm yet lively texture on palate and long finish. Terrific with grilled tuna.
