"The 2008 Meursault Perrières is a stunning white Burgundy for the vintage. It has detailed, vibrant, mineral-laden bouquet that is full of energy and sense of place, cognizant that it comes from one of the appellation’s finest vineyards and not wanting to let you, the grateful imbiber, down. The palate is effortlessly balanced with perfect acidity, immense tension and poise with an elegant, stony, almost conservative finish that delivers wonderful complexity. This may warrant more superlatives with further bottle age. Awesome."
