LATOUR-GIRAUD - Meursault 1er cru Genevrières Cuvée des Pierre - 2015

LATOUR-GIRAUD

Meursault 1er cru Genevrières Cuvée des Pierre 2015

Slightly hazy bright yellow. Pure but subdued aromas of stone fruits and spices are less marked by the vintage than most of Latour's other 2015s. Wonderfully fine-grained and light on its feet, with a touch of green vegetables and a high-toned hint of lavender lifting the middle palate. Very airy in the mouth if still a bit youthfully tight. Sneaky acidity comes up on the back end of this wonderfully silky, intense Meursault. An outstanding 2015 with terrific energy (4.6 g/l acidity) and length.
