Lot #22. Vincent Girardin (Maison) Meursault Genevrières 2009

Description: Consists of 3 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 92 AG.
"The 2009 Meursault Genevrières flows onto the palate with generous layers of mineral-infused fruit. It possesses gorgeous aromatic complexity and depth an intensely vibrant style, even for this vineyard . . . . Girardin has increased the amount of time his wines spend on their lees, has lowered new oak, has eliminated batonnage and has basically re-built his entire approach from the bottom up, which I have to say, is quite impressive. The 2009s were harvested beginning on September 15, with natural alcohols in the 12.5-13% range. The wines were bottled between mid-March and mid-May 2011. Today the 2009s are quite fresh and still showing some of the effects of their recent bottling. It is safe to say the wines Girardin is making today are quite different from those of the past."
