Gorgeously sweet aromas of spiced pears and buttered toast can be found in the nose of the 2003 Meursault (Vireuils-Dessous) (white). Medium-bodied, satin-textured, and harmonious, this wine exhibits gorgeous depth of fruit. Roasted pears immersed in butter dominate its flavor profile. Fat yet graceful, this seductive effort reveals a barely noticeable, slightly disjointed, note of acid in its finish. It should be consumed over the next 5 years.
