Maison Morey-Coffinet, Meursault Perrieres 2016

The 2016 Meursault Perrieres from Maison Morey-Coffinet is showing beautiful balance and intensity. The nose offer plenty of cool and vibrant fruit – fine intensity and depth – fine citrus and oak infused minerality. On the palate lovely depth and effortless airy fruit – not extremely concentrated for the vintage – but instead with a lovely balance as the best 2016s offer. Please note this is a negociant bottling – delightful nevertheless.

  The 2020 vintage is a serious and somewhat scary beast – to me at least- coming as it does after the outstandingly great red 2019s. Don’t get me wrong: I think the 2020s are very, very good, and sometimes even better than the 2019s. It’s seemingly a cooler year, and a vintage that often talks ...
