The toasty white fruit and stone-scented 1998 Meursault Perrieres is a refined, medium-bodied wine. Its lemon and mineral-filled flavor profile is detail-oriented, well-delineated, and persistent in the finish. If this wine gathers richness and body as it completes its elevage, it will merit a score in the upper end of the range provided. Anticipated maturity: now-2005.
