Jean-Philippe Fichet Meursault Le Tesson - 2005 (750ml)
Winemakers Notes:
From its position on a magnificent plot, a constant slope from top to bottom with a depth of 40-50 cm, located to the east on a lava subsoil, this locality is one of the best located of the Meursault-villages. It is a continuation of the leading vintages, going back towards the north and on the same level curves as the best Meursault wines. Halfway up a slope, located on well balanced soil between clay and limestone, with few stones.
Characteristics of the wine :
These are wines with finesse and elegance, mineral, long in the mouth: the quintessence of the Meursault appellation. There is a complexity to this specific locality not found in the others.
Importer's Notes:
“Tesson”—Very similar to Chevalières in its minerality and fruit character, Tesson often has even more mid-palate weight and length. Focused like a laser beam, Fichet’s Tesson frequently surpasses wines from other producers’ premiers crus.
