2016 Meursault, Genevrieres, 1er Cru, Benjamin Leroux

Drink soonRunning lowNeal Martin 91-93/100

A restrained nose consists of petrol and matchstick though with much more subtle wood influence. The mouth feel of the middle weight flavors is noticeably finer as well as a bit more mineral-inflected if not quite as concentrated, all wrapped in a relatively delicate, balanced and impressively persistent finish. Lovely. 90-.
