Laser-focused Burgundian perfection from Meursault's greatest vineyard.
Transparent brilliance. Piercing lime zest cuts through layers of crushed stone minerality. Apple core freshness merges with subtle floral undertones—white flowers, acacia honey hints. The chalky essence of Perrières limestone permeates every sip. Mouth-coating texture without weight. Electric acidity drives citrus notes deep into the finish. Oak whispers, never shouts. This 2016 balances power with restraint—classic Roulot precision. Mineral backbone promises evolution through 2035. Temperature reveals complexity: cool shows structure, warmth unveils aromatics. Burgundy at its most transparent. Pure terroir expression.
🍷 You worship at the altar of terroir and have patience for greatness.
Pairs with: Chablis-style oysters with mignonette, Roasted turbot with brown butter, Aged Comté cheese, Lobster thermidor
