Now at ten years old, Pierre Morey's 2007 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières is at full flight. You might argue that it had a tough time following a 1990 Les Perrières from Coche-Dury—and at ten times the price—but the fact is, this wine was streets ahead. Glistening in the glass, it evoked images of crushed stone, with faint hints of freshly cut pineapple and white peach. The palate is tensile—full of coiled-up energy—and expresses that stony quality that defines this great vineyard, unlike the aforementioned 1990. It comes with disarming purity and precision, then a touch of salinity on the finish. It is a regal Meursault that is going to give another decade's worth of drinking pleasure. Tasted May 2017.
