Meursault 1er Cru sous le Dos d’Âne – 2007 – 90 points – The Wine Advocate
90 points

“From young vines immediately north of the hamlet of Blagny high above Les Perrieres – whose mineral cast Remy believes it will come to resemble, Leflaive’s 2007 Meursault Sous le Dos de Ane smells of honeysuckle and fresh apricot; comes onto the palate quite rich and silken, but with bright lemon and chalk dust adjuncts; and finishes with salinity, chalkiness, and a meat broth-like savor vaguely reminiscent of Chablis. The combination of (metaphorically) warm ripeness and lush texture with overt mineral notes is unusual and fascinating, and there is satisfying if not especially dynamic persistence.”
