Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 27/02/2004 Described by Coche as “hyper-ripe,” the 2002 Meursault Perrieres sports a nose of sweet candied apples. It is broad, rich, hugely concentrated, deep, and amazingly long in the finish. Fat layers of pure, detailed minerals and gravel can be found in its complex personality. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2016. Note: Jean-Francois Coche labels five different wines as “Meursault,” the Vireuils-Dessous, Vireuils-Dessus, La Barre, Narvaux, and from an as-yet-unnamed parcel (it may be called “Chaumes”) on the top of the Meursault hill that belongs to his son Raphael. His US importer, Kermit Lynch, generally purchases only the Meursault from the Narvaux vineyard, but there is no way of knowing which “Meursault” is being purchased from the gray market. ()
