"Tasting the 1996 Meursault Perrières is an out-of-this-world experience. This masterpiece has perfect balance, focus, and delineation. It is vibrant, spiritual, and as complex a wine as I can imagine. It attacks the palate with waves of candied lemons, marzipan, creamed hazelnuts, pears, grilled oak, curry, red berries, and loads of minerals. It is truly mind-blowing."
