Charmes Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay

Warm Johnson’s Carmel Popcorn right out of the oven off of the Ocean City Boardwalk. A touch of oxidation creaminess. Elegance

Hellloooo lovely!! Amazing bright acidity, satsuma oranges and bright Meyer lemon peel. Revealing toasted almond and marzipan as it opens up. Length for days... Wait. It's how old?!?

2002 Mersault-Charmes 1er Cru. Past its prime but at a good plateau / level. 24 years later, still has some tension and acidity, but not a lot of describable fruit. Good minerality. Enjoyed at home with a sautéed cod, clams, broccoli rabe and cannellini bean stew.

Wow! The color is just gorgeous! The nose out of the bottle so bright and alive. Meyer lemon, toasted almond, fresh grass and an amazing looooong finish.

A bit odd. Peach and soft notes. Very resolved and supple and enjoyable but atypical. Almost like Alsatian/ Condrieu but very tasty and complete.

This Bottle seemed much better than others I've had

In good shape given its age. Naturally oxidized. Pretty. Good structure. Apples and medium bodied middle. A shortish simple finish

7th bottle from this case. Somehow much more alive than its sisters.
