1996 Meursault Les Perrieres

Revealing an intense nose of minerals and stones, the fabulous Meursault Perrieres has awesome depth, richness, and delineation. This elegant wine is packed with gravel, smoke, and toasted nuts and possesses a medium-to-full-bodied, silky-textured, and highly-concentrated personality. It should be consumed between 2004 and 2010. The rating, with the range of scores in parentheses, indicates the wine was tasted from cask, not bottle.
