Jean-Phillipe Fichet Meursault Meix Sous le Chateau 2020 (750ML)

89-92 JM / 89-91 BH

Pale to mid lemon. A certain toast on the nose from this richer soil site. Some peachy notes through the middle, a little drier at the finish. A plumper style of Meursault than the Fichet norm, attractive without hitting the heights of class. Tasted: 10/1/2021—Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

Tasting note: Firm reduction again renders the nose impossible to assess correctly. There is though a lovely freshness and verve to the nicely voluminous and rich medium-bodied flavors that are supported by citrus-tinged acidity on the youthfully austere and sneaky long finale. This too is really quite pretty. Outstanding. –Allen Meadows, Burghound
