Decanter: 93 Points

There is a forward engageing ripe apple and spice nose on the initial attack of this village Meursault with notes of acacia flowers and butter that open up on the palate. The wine seems to lack the incisive acidity of some of the 21s yet is supple and very pleasant. Due to frost damage this contains all the fruit from Les Criots Au Moulin Landin Les Millerands Bois de Blagny and Forges ? everything was blended together and only Vireuils separated out making twenty barrels and only one was new. A classic village-level Meursault. (Drink between 2023-2035)

Jasper Morris: 88-91 Points

Made mostly from domaine fruit with the small amount of purchased Narvaux included. Pale lemon colour lifted and charming. Good acidity behind medium bodied this will show a little more opulence later. Drink from 2025-2028.
