The 2002 Meursault Meix Chavaux boasts a gorgeous minerality. Medium-bodied, rich, ample, and suave, it is crammed with spicy pears and candied apples. This lush, velvety-textured wine should be drunk over the next 5 years.
Jean-Marc Roulot loves the 2002s. “The north wind of early September concentrated all the grapes. It is a vintage like 1992, yet with lower yields. We gained three degrees of natural potential alcohol in one week.” He is convinced that these wines will age well because “they have perfect health, ripeness, and acidity.”
Sleek and restrained, this is rooted in the mineral camp, with support from citronella and hazelnut notes. Very discreet use of oak, with plenty of substance. Vibrant and long.
