Domaine Thierry & Pascale Matrot Meursault 'Perrieres' Premier Cru 2020
The greatest of all their Meursault wines. It has a mineral and crystalline initial bouquet. The terroir is omnipresent. Both fine and elegant, its powerful salinity awakens the taste buds. It is a vibrant, sapid, and exceptional wine, especially when opened after a few years.
91+ Points -Â Vinous
The 2020 Meursault Les Perrieres 1er Cru has a delineated bouquet, demonstrating fine mineralite and tension, the oak here well integrated (no new barrels used here.) The palate is medium-bodied with fine grip and density, a satisfying bead of acidity, but my only quibble is that it does not quite deliver the stoniness, the mineralité of a great Perrieres on the finish. Still, there is impressive length and it should still age well in bottle.Â
