de Montille, Meursault Perrieres Blanc Vintage:2013 The 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape(from a . 45 ha parcel). Notes of smoky mineral reduction, lemon grass and acacia blossom precede highly energetic and more mineral driven if less concentrated and powerful middle weight flavors that possess a highly refined and sophisticated texture. The tightly wound, youthfully austere and bone dry finish is textbook Perrires and while it could use a bit more overall depth, the underlying material appears to be very promising.
