Tasting notes
This is also quite aromatically cool with a beautiful array of prominent mineral reduction aromas that are nuanced by hints of green apple, exotic tea and plenty of citrus influence. The succulent and refined medium weight flavors possess an absolutely gorgeous mouthfeel while exuding an almost pungent minerality on the moderately austere and wonderfully long finish. This is both stylish and classy though note well that it is very much built to age. This too is one to strongly consider. Drink 2034+

Cask sample. This is both more stony and more intensely citrus than the Genevrières. Mouth-watering from the start, long and moderately concentrated with an attractively chalky texture on the finish.
The 2022 Meursault Les Perrières ler Cru has a crisp, minerally bouquet with a clever reduction, just lending a bit of tension and bite. The well-balanced palate has good intensity, very linear and tensile, crushed stone infusing the slightly peachy fruit with a long tail on the finish. Excellent.
From the two remaining plots of Perrières after one has been repositioned (see under Puligny Chalumeaux). Attractive fresh fruit on the nose and then the weight of the appellation comes up. Some ripe apples, but then a broader basket of slightly more exotic fruit, that has not been allowed to ripen too far. A fine balanced whole with the power to develop.
