2019 Meursault Les Perrieres

There are two barrels of Germain's brilliant 2019 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières, a wine that will be worth a special effort to seek out. Mingling hints of citrus zest and crisp orchard fruit with notions of white flowers, wet stones and fresh bread, it's medium to full-bodied, chiseled and searingly intense, with chalky structuring dry extract, tangy acids and a tensile, tightly wound profile.
