There was just a tiny bit of reduction on the 2013 Meursault Desirée when I tasted it from barrel (it was racked onto the lees of the Meursault Village in order to get it going), but it gradually unfolds with hazelnut and flint aromas. The palate is well balanced, slightly honeyed in style with a soft, caressing citrus finish that is just missing a little complexity and just loses focus toward the finish. This was one where I felt just a little shortchanged.
