Guy Roulot's wines are made in an elegant style. The young Roulot feels his best vintage over recent years has been 1990, followed by 1992. All the 1992s had just been bottled when I tasted them, so they may have been somewhat subdued.
The three best Meursaults from Roulot are generally Les Tessons, Les Charmes, and Les Perrieres. Roulot's father Guy always adored Les Tessons, stating on the label, the Clos de Mon Plaisir. This wine is usually an opulent, medium to full-bodied, classic example of the appellation. The 1992 Meursault-Les Charmes is the fattest, richest, most powerful of these offerings. With a honeyed, nutty, applebutter-scented nose, medium to full-body, crisp acidity, and a fine finish, it should drink well for 6-7 years.
