Neal Martin, June 2013, Score: 91/100
Comparing the 2009 against the 2010, the former is more open, displaying subtle white chocolate scents that are infused into the citric fruit and apple-blossom aromas. Leaving the glass to one side, it develops an attractive flint scent after 15 minutes. The palate is supremely well balanced with outstanding mineralite, though it does not possess quite the same weight as the 2010. Still, it offers outstanding focus and tension, while there is a lovely touch of spice on the aftertaste. Drink now-2020. 91/100

Meursault
Meursault is the first great white wine area that one stumbles upon on leaving Beaune. Unlike other white dominated appellations in Burgundy, Meursault has no grand cru vineyards. It nonetheless has significant flair and power which make up for this deficiency. Indeed, if tasted blind some of these wines could even surpass other Burgundian grand crus. They are no fainting daisies. This may partially be due to Meursault's lower water table which enables the roots to delve deep in the soil picking up many trace minerals and which further stresses the vines. In addition, the cellars are more profound and cooler, enabling long fermentations, which increase complexity and longevity. Some interesting red wines are also made.
