2019 Comtesse de Cherisey, Meursault 1er Cru, Blagny La Genelotte Blanc 1x75cl

Jasper Morris – 90-93

Attractive pale lemon and lime. Extra tension to this wine, possibly a little more concentration, delicious perfume underpinned by the power of the citrus. There is enough clay in the soil here to keep the vines happy. Very successful. [01/10/2020]

Vinous – 92-94

The 2019 Meursault Blagny La Genelottes 1er Cru is planted on white clayey soils, meaning that the vines did not suffer at all in this warm growing season. It has an engaging bouquet of white peaches and greengage, touches of red apples rather than green, and hints of lemon thyme. The palate is very well balanced with peach skin and lemon peel on the entry, a fine bead of acidity and the same spicy finish as the Hameau de Blagny. Excellent. [Neal Martin, 01/10/2020]
