William Kelley

A ripe bouquet of honeyed peaches, pears, beeswax, toasted almonds and white flowers introduces the 2018 Meursault Desiree, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping wine that's ripe, textural and sumptuous, with succulent acids and a long finish. While the Desiree always has huge upfront appeal, it is often also deceptively age-worthy.

Would be called Santenots premier cru if red. And it could be called Les Plures premier cru but he likes to use this old name that was not registered as a premier cru for some reason. An early spot. Quite young vines - 10 years old. Tank sample. More restrained than the village Meursault but I still get a hint of ginger. Finer and fresher and a little tighter than the village. Long too. (JH)
