2020 Thierry et Pascale Matrot Meursault-Blagny Premier Cru
Other Reviews....
A slightly riper nose offers up its array of poached pear, spice, white flowers and a hint of fennel. There is better volume and equally good vibrancy to the attractively textured medium-bodied flavors, all wrapped in a more subtly mineral-infused, moderately austere and sneaky long finish. Drink through 2027+.

Allen Meadows - Burghound
The 2020 Meursault Blagny 1er Cru has a lively Alpine-fresh bouquet with lemon verbena, fern and touches of yellow plum. Very vivacious and nicely delineated. The palate is well-defined with good weight, not complex perhaps, though there is satisfying density towards the finish with veins of shaved almonds and stem ginger, the latter lingering on the aftertaste. Excellent. Drink 2024-2042.

Neal Martin - Vinous
Still in barrel, unracked. Pale lemon and lime, some citrus in with the apple here. Almost a Iime note as well, a more chiselled finish, white fruit, is going to take a little time, a wine to keep, which remains one of the great qualities chez Matrot.
