Bouchard Père & Fils Meursault Perrières 1er Cru 2018

Whiffs of matchstick, lemongrass and mineral reduction are present in the cool and pure essence of pear aromas that are also trimmed in just enough wood to mention. The middle weight flavours flash a lovely minerality while the mouthfeel is very classy on the chiselled, sappy, dry and youthfully austere finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This will need a few years to develop better overall depth though it's not so backward that it could not be enjoyed young if that's your preference.
