Bouchard Pere et Fils, Meursault Charmes

Bouchard Pere et Fils, Meursault Charmes(from Charmes Dessous). Subtle but not invisible wood along with a touch of menthol frame the pretty blend of white peach, pear and acacia blossom. The succulent and concentrated medium bodied flavors flash good power on the bitter lemon inflected finish that offers solid persistence. This will need to develop better depth to realize the upper end of my projected range.
