"The 2000 Meursault villages is utterly classic and drinking beautifully. The bright, mature and vibrant nose offers up a fine mix of apple, pear, hazelnut, iodine, a touch of coconut, impressive minerality and a discreet framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, crisp and fullish, with great purity on the attack, a very good core and a beautifully focused, complex and racy finish. This is a fine, fine bottle of Meursault AC that is evolving in pristine fashion."
