- | * **Meursault–Perrières** (May 2016, May 2019): 2 btls not oxidized. On both occasions, the nose was reluctant & the flavors were reserved. Tightly packed with extract, this wine would benefit from decanting and/or service in a glass with a wide bowl. The btl in 2019 was better on day 2. From a lot of 3 purchased at retail in Hong Kong in Mar. 2015. [Rayner Cheung] | + | * **Meursault–Perrières** (May 2016, May 2019, Nov. 2019): 3 btls not oxidized.

* **Meursault Perrieres** (24 Mar 2011): I don't normally post about wines less than 6 years old, but this wine was notably advanced -- it tasted like a 7 or 8 year old wine. It was fabulous, but scary. Complete cork seal failure? I hope so, as I own a lot of this one [Don Cornwell] | * **Meursault Perrieres** (24 Mar 2011): I don't normally post about wines less than 6 years old, but this wine was notably advanced -- it tasted like a 7 or 8 year old wine.

* **Meursault Genevrieres** (July 2014): After two brilliant bottles earlier this year from the same case (both young, taut, mineral driven and racy), a third bottle was seriously premoxed. | * **Meursault Genevrieres** (July 2014): After two brilliant bottles earlier this year from the same case (both young, taut, mineral driven and racy), a third bottle was seriously premoxed. | ||
+ | * **Meursault–Perrières** (Nov. 2019 – ): 1 btl not oxidized. Classic Lafon in the nose & on the palate, but still youthful & less than fully expressive despite decanting. Color is now gold. From 3 btls purchased at retail in Hong Kong in Feb. 2015. [Rayner Cheung] | ||
* **Puligny-Montrachet, Champgain** (March 2015): Vibrant, full of life and singing, not oxidized. [Ken Lamb] | * **Puligny-Montrachet, Champgain** (March 2015): Vibrant, full of life and singing, not oxidized. [Ken Lamb] | ||
