Suggestion from June 21 2017
Wine: 2010 Meursault - Cuvée Clousots
Producer: Domaine Patrick Javillier
Comment: A wonderfully expressive and aromatically dense nose features notes of both white and yellow orchard fruit, rose petal, lavender and wet stone. There is excellent volume to the seductively textured medium weight flavors that exude a fine dry extract that buffers the firm acid spine that shapes and supports the succulent and impressively intense mineral-driven finish that goes on and on. A simply fantastic villages.
