WA90: Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2012 tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières from Château de Meursault has an understated nose at first, though the mineral/stony notes are in situ, just needing a little encouragement from the glass. The palate is taut on the entry, a dash of spice (ginger) on the entry, gently building in the mouth but never fully letting go and there is a touch of heat marring the finish.
