The 2010 Meursault Blagny doesn’t quite seem to have enough fruit to fill out its frame, and it gives the impression of being a bit light and airy. Still, there is good definition in the aromas and flavors, just not quite the balance or precision of the best wines here. This, too, looks to be a relatively early drinker. Citrus, green pears, flint and white flowers are some of the notes that linger in the empty glass. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. Thierry Matrot told me he thinks 2010 is one of the greatest vintages of the last 30 years. Yields came in around 20-25 hectoliters per hectare, which is tiny by any measure. Batonnage gives the Matrot wines quite a bit of textural richness when they are young, along with the impression they are built for serious aging, but in my experience the wines need to be enjoyed within a few years after release. Unfortunately I was not able to taste the 2010 Meursault Perrieres for this article, although I hope to taste it soon. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802
