I would have given this wine a slightly higher rating but the new oak has been pushed to the limit

fresh and lightly textured effort that has medium-bodied richness

gravel & sandstone

violet and a hint of wood

Laurent Ponsot, Meursault Charmes Centauree other_regions_italy I would have given this(a Centaure is a cornflower). Citrus and petrol suffused aromas include those of grilled nuts, brown butter, poached pear and a discreet application of wood influence. The caressing and seductive medium bodied flavors possess a lovely texture that carries over to the punchy and solidly persistent finish where the only nit is a similar touch of warmth. This bone dry effort is lovely and worth your interest.
