2015 Meursault, Le Limozin, Michel Bouzereau (6 x Bottle)
The 2015 Meursault Village Le Limozin, aged in 25% new oak, felt a little withdrawn on the nose when I tasted it—a bit recalcitrant compared to the Les Grands Charrons. The palate is more expressive and delivers tangy mandarin and orange peel notes, a dab of brown spices matched with a fine line of acidity. There is a pleasing structure here as it grips the mouth but does not overstay its welcome. This is a well-crafted, delightful Meursault that should give 8-10 years of drinking pleasure.

Vinous
(Bouzereau has pulled up these degenerating 45-year-old vines for replanting; from a south-facing calcaire-rich site under Genevrières): Pale, bright yellow. White peach and dusty stone aromas convey an impression of lift. More backward and gripping than the Grands Charrons, offering more texture and concentration and a distinctly stony influence. There’s still a creamy quality in the middle but an element of peppery herbs firms the finish.

Vinous
Bright medium yellow. Aromas of pineapple, lemon zest, pear, licorice and menthol convey a faintly bitter quality. In a very rich but slightly exotic, aggressive style, with its pear and fresh herb flavors a bit dulled by some alcoholic warmth. Finishes a touch dry and hot. Not my favorite style, but I’d give it another year in bottle to lose some of its baby fat.
