2022 Bitouzet-Prieur Meursault Perrieres 1er (Pre-arrival)

Burghound Sweet Spot Outstanding ♥ – “A completely different nose presents aromas of wet stone, iodine, oyster shell and a more discreet application of wood. The super-sleek, intense and precise flavors exude an almost aggressive minerality on the strikingly long, youthfully austere and balanced finish. While this too could use better depth, more is all but guaranteed to develop if given a chance. If you can find this beauty, buy it.”

Jasper Morris (92-95) – “From vines planted in 1983 in the central core of Perrières. There is quite powerful fruit, with the full imprint of Perrières, ripe pears with the apples, a significantly greater depth of fruit than the Charmes, well tied in to the acidity, and with fine length.”
