A much more animated and complex bottle when compared to the listless dud of a delivery that slugged from the 2018 Charmes earlier this summer, the 2017 has all of the liveliness one would desire,…
Funky earth and dusty plum, with cedar, mushroom, salt rock, smoke, and wilted herb flavors. Slightly thin and watery on the finish. Medium all the way around. No fireworks here this time compared to…
Strike two with this wine. For lack of a better term, this wine was a bit of a snoozer. It was "fine" in the technical sense, but it really was just a flat affective display of fruit and minerality.…
Struck matchstick reduction dominates, with lemon drop, cantaloupe rind, and white peach pushing to get attention. Broad shouldered and slightly clunky right now; unresolved and looking to find a…
At the French Laundry. A solid producer from a solid site makes for a worthy Meursault and a perfect complement to the food. Succulent yellow citrus, spritely green, yellow, and white stone fruit,…
Last bottle. A solid performance each time. Stops just short of 1er Cru concentration and intensity, with a lemony persistence that keeps the flavor conveyance gliding through the medium finish. I…
Even more expressive than last year. Lemon/lime zest and quince flavors intermingle well with the wet white travertine scaffolding. Punchy without being pithy. Excellent acidity and drive, all the…
Beautiful lemon-lime zest and luscious yellow pear notes work well with white pumice minerality aptly framing the gorgeous fruit. Medium-to-full bodied and balanced, with a saturated mouthfeel that…
Fresh and acidic beams of lemon juice and clementine give way to a lively interplay of citrus and white stone flavors, brightening and dynamically coating the palate. Not exaggeratedly punchy to the…
Similar to previous notes, and likely the best bottle of this wine I've had yet. Awesomely vibrant and punchy fresh squeezed lime and lemon juice, citrus zest, wet limestone, quince jelly, and unripe…
Hey bro, for $20, who could complain. Lemon and some white stone notes. Round without being too plush or soft. Just enough acid to keep it all in focus. Bottle was gone before we knew it. It's…
A little more filled-out since my having this last year, with ripe and zesty yellow citrus and limestone flavors making for both a mouthwatering and classic experience. A wine that can certainly be…
Served side by side with a '16 Mikulski Meursault (general; non-1er), this zesty '15 Mikulski Poruzots 1er carried brighter focus and more chiseled mineral elements when compared to the general…
Continues to drink beautifully. Served side by side with a zesty '15 Mikulski Poruzots 1er, which carried brighter focus and chiseled mineral elements to it. However, this Meursault offering held its…
Lemon verbena, lemon and lime zest, and wet limestone. Primary and pure, with a clean but linear delivery at this juncture. Much more straight-laced than the 2015. Tasty but in need of 3+ years to…
A solid core of yellow citrus is encompassed by some white stone and vanilla notes. Medium weighted and a bit primary, but still kicking out the usual succulent core that comes from the Mikulski…
A fresh lemon and lime juice core is flanked by cardamom and pulverized granite notes that add interest to the medium and agreeable delivery of flavor. Beautifully weighted and succulently round…
A fascinating wine, with a nose that blasts sea foam and oyster shells right into the back of the mouth...Like walking down a fog-covered beach in Point Reyes with seaweed-strewn sands and hundreds…
Lemon juice, lemon and lime zest, mandarin orange, lemon curd, dry grass, quince, travertine, white popcorn, and honeysuckle. Beautifully weighted, with a vibrant energy that doesn't race over the…
Lemon and lime zest, fresh squeezed lemon juice, lemon curd, butterscotch, almond meal, poached yellow pear, and wet river rock. Vibrant and rich (without being "riiiiiich"). Finishes with a great…
For the price, this is absolutely stupid good. Vibrant acidity and verve push the fresh lemon and lime zest flavors across the palate, darting to all sides of the mouth, finishing with medium punch…
Went for a decant this time over the course of two-three hours. Didn't need it. I liked it punchy its first hour of consumption. Good stuff overall with bright and succulent yellow citrus flavors.…
Yellow citrus, lemon and lime zest, yellow pear skin, white stone fruit, quince, pumice, limestone, cardamom, and a hint of white pepper and acacia. Speeds through the mid-palate and whips ahead on a…
Medium and balanced overall, with an execution that highlights freshness and purity; an initially linear delivery that expands over time with vigorously decanted air (2+ hours). Bright yellow citrus,…
