Meursault Perrières 2013 75cl

Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières does not quite have the definition of the example from Château de Meursault. There are pleasant acacia and dried honey scents, but it needs more detail to develop in bottle. The palate is saline on the entry with fresh lime and green apple, moderate weight in the mouth and yet falling away a little short on the finish. I must confess that I was shocked when I discovered that this was from Domaine des Comtes Lafon. Like other 2013s, it was the first to be bottled under DIAM and again, I wonder if this has actually compromised what from barrel appeared to be a fantastic wine? Tasted May 2016.
