Domaine Roulot 2017 Meursault Perrieres

The Domaine Roulot 2017 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières stands as an epitome of Burgundian elegance, presenting itself with a luminous, pale-gold color. The nose is a delicate dance of aromas, where notes of citrus blossom, white flowers, and crushed minerals intertwine, hinting at the wine's depth. On the palate, a harmonious blend unfolds—medium to full-bodied, with a satiny texture and layers of complexity. Precise acidity frames flavors of ripe citrus, orchard fruits, and a subtle minerality. The finish is a masterpiece, lingering with finesse, leaving echoes of fresh pastry, chalk, and a captivating sense of terroir. This Perrières is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of Domaine Roulot, showcasing the purity and sophistication that define their winemaking philosophy.

Robert Parker - 97 Points

"Revisited from bottle, the 2017 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières confirms its status as one of the wines of the vintage, unwinding in the glass with aromas of citrus oil, white flowers, crushed chalk and fresh pastry that only hint of the complexity to come. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with an exquisitely satiny attack, a deep and multidimensional core and considerable concentration underpinned by incisive acids. Concluding with a long, penetrating and searingly chalky finish, this Perrières is a brilliant achievement."

Antonio Galloni

"The 2017 Meursault Les Perrières 1er Cru feels a bit volatile on the nose, displaying touches of pear and lemongrass but missing a little cohesion and freshness. The palate has good weight and a waxy texture, but it lacks tension and mineralité, and the finish is monotone compared to its peers. This was a curious showing and I will defer any score until I can reexamine it. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune. "
