Hazelnuts and candied almonds make up the aromatic profile of the 2001 Meursault Charmes. This beauty is even denser, riper, and lusher than the Narvaux. Wonderfully concentrated, intense, and hugely expressive, this wine coats the taster's palate with oodles of poached pear and spice flavors. Medium-bodied, velvety-textured, and deep, it is a plush, powerful offering with an impressively long, pure finish. Anticipated maturity: now-2010. Yves Boyer-Martenot is among those producers of white Burgundy to have captured the 2001 vintage's potential. This is a "Cuvee Unique" bottling produced exclusively for North Berkeley Imports.
