With the 1996 vintage Mikulski has catapulted himself into the top echelon of Meursault's producers. The stunning Meursault Charmes enthralls the taster with its femininity, elegance, class, refinement and definition. Revealing floral, mineral and perfumed aromas, this deep, complex, highly focused, broad, and medium-to-full-bodied wine offers sweet white flowers, crisp pears and intense minerality in its flavor profile. The exceedingly long finish maintains its complexity and definition of flavors for nearly 45 seconds. Bravo!
The rating, with the range of scores in parentheses, indicates the wine was tasted from cask, not bottle.
