About This Wine
Meursault Les Perrières from the heatwave year of 2003, selected and cellared by Maison Leroy.
Les Perrières takes its name from the old stone quarries on the slope, and its thin, rocky soils sit above Les Charmes on the Puligny side.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Lemon curd, baked apple and hazelnut, with honey and a smoky, stony edge.
- Palate: Rich and textured, with mature Chardonnay fruit held in place by a mineral spine.
- Finish: Long and savoury, with toasted nuts and a gently saline close.
Serving & Food
Lobster with butter sauce, veal in morel cream or aged Comté all work well.
Good to Know
How should I serve it? At 12 to 13°C in a large white wine glass.
What was 2003 like? A scorcher, giving riper, rounder wine.
