Albert Bichot Meursault 1er Cru "Les Charmes" 2021

90 POINTS

Neal Martin - Vinous

The 2021 Meursault Les Charmes 1er Cru has a ripe slightly more exotic nose: mandarin, mango and beeswax scents coming through with time. The palate is fresh on the entry with fine acidity and an attractive waxy texture, gaining weight towards the finish that does feel like a Charmes. It dispenses with its more extrovert traits as it opens in the glass and should repay cellaring. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Meursault Les Charmes 1er Cru has a fragrant bouquet with yellow flower permeating the citrus fruit and hints of wild peach. The palate is well balanced with tropical tones. Not complex, but very drinkable. Don't think too hard about this Meursault and you will enjoy it.
