A name that should be on more lips – I have consistently found outstanding wines at this domaine…

2017 Yves Boyer-Martenot, Meursault-Perrières
A bottle from the cellar that has long ‘winked’ at me – today is its day…
Midway between lemon-yellow and gold coloured – plenty of colour. A fresh and intense nose, starting a little chalky but slowly filling the glass with weight and a little lemon pie and much more subtle crême-brulee. Hmm, taught, direct and, yes, mineral! This finish is beautifully long, accented with more secondary notes from the barrel. Racy when first from the fridge, more layered and ‘larger’ with air and warmth in the glass. Beautifully long wine, even the final glass on day 2 !!
