Domaine Ballot-Millot Meursault Perrieres 1er 2016
After just five years of bottle age, this 2016 is a delightfully elegant and finessed discovery. The bouquet and palate feature notes of Honeycrisp apple, Bartlett pear and white peach lead to an experience that is quite satisfying in its complexity, boasting majestic layers of tightly wound fruit with hints of pineapple and cotton candy on the tangy finish. This elegant and age-worthy winner is worthy of 97 points now and should merit another point or two over the next 2-3 years
