The 2021 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes is performing very well, exhibiting aromas of pear, crisp yellow orchard fruit and buttery pastry, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and ample palate that's fleshy and layered, with excellent cut and concentration. This parcel was planted in 1942, and it seems to have taken the challenges of the 2021 growing season in its stride.
