From barrel, the 2015 Meursault 1er Cru Genevrieres offers up a lovely nose of green pear, apple, chamomile and wheat toast, framed by light reduction which dissipates in the glass. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, bright and penetrating, with a lovely line of acidity, good depth and concentration, and nice chalky grip on the long finish. This was one of the highlights of Pierre-Yves Colin's range from barrel, and it is equally compelling from bottle. Among Pierre-Yves' higher-appellation 2015s, which were all bottled in April 2017, it's also one of the more forthcoming in its youth, though its true potential will only be realized with bottle age.
