2022 LOUIS JADOT MEURSAULT GENEVRIERES 1ER CRU

(94 Points) Jadot's Genevrières shows abundant ripe pear and floral notes, a hint of butter, and toasted hazelnut. The texture is rich but not heavy, with balanced acidity and good length. It is noticeably more substantial than the village Meursault but has a marvellous balance and better wood integration. The grapes were gently crushed before pressing and fermented on native yeasts in cask (one-third new). It should open up with two or three years in the bottle and drink well for at least a decade.
