Harvested at 13.3% natural potential alcohol, the Meursault Clos De La Barre reveals sweet aromas of candied pears, apples, and honeysuckle. This vibrant, medium-to-full-bodied, and deeply rich wine is crammed with peaches, minerals, and clay. It is velvety-textured, thick, exquisitely dense, and possesses an admirably long finish. Drink it between 2001 and 2007. Importer: Ex Cellars, Boston, MA; tel (617) 876-5105.
