($51, Kobrand Wine And Spirits): In a word — gorgeous. Though the first whiff hints at grandeur, it takes time in the glass for the charm of this Meursault to reveal itself. But it does — creamy with a captivating fullness. Indeed, it is explosive without being heavy. It caresses the palate. A firm structure and lively acidity keeps you coming back, happily, for another glass. Jadot has consistently made an excellent village Meursault so it’s no surprise that their 2012 rivals other producers’ premier crus. It’s another example of the importance of the producer in selecting wine, especially Burgundy.
