Suggestion from January 28 2026
Wine: 2018 Meursault - Cuvée Tête de Murger
Producer: Domaine Patrick Javillier
Comment: This is aromatically similar to the Clousots but with more floral elements. There is even better volume and mid-palate density to the muscular medium weight flavors that coat the mouth with dry extract on the overtly powerful finish where a hint of bitter lemon arises. This is a very serious Meursault villages that should amply repay up to a decade of cellaring. This too is recommended.
