Ballot Millot, Meursault Charmes

Ballot Millot, Meursault Charmes(from Charmes Dessus). A very pretty and ultra fresh nose consists of various white orchard fruit and plenty of citrus and spice nuances. There is equally good freshness and excellent tension to the slightly richer if not quite as refined flavors that possess a caressing mid palate mouthfeel before culminating in a lengthy, delicious and attractively clean finale. This is also lovely though it too needs to add depth.
