2024, Maison Benjamin Leroux, MEURSAULT, VillageThe usual blend, all of their own vines, though Bois de Blagny has since been pulled out. Ben will go for wider rows with higher training and some agroforestry. Pale lemon yellow. The Meursault blend has a really refined nose, and is fine boned on the palate with just the right generosity of fruit. Balanced ripeness, balanced acidity and then just an extra little kick of concentration. Drink from 2028 2032. **** 90 92 Jasper Morris MW The 2024
