From parcels in three sites – Les Forges, Les Pellans, and Les Chaumes – Pierre Morey’s 2006 Meursault smells of salted fresh lemon, narcissus, and toasted wheat; combines richness of texture and underlying chalky density with vivacity on the palate; and finishes with persistent refreshment and a faint sizzle of citrus zest. While relatively austere, this is apt, I suspect, to be best enjoyed over the next 3-4 years.
Pierre Morey – who recently announced his retirement after many years as cellar master at Domaine Leflaive – continues to craft Morey actively stirs the lees until Christmas, then lets the wines tell him when and whether to continue, which for the most part he did not in 2006.
