From just below the Vireuils, Roulot’s 2006 Meursault Luchets suggests lime chiffon in its combination of citrus, subtle creaminess, and wafting levity. Bitterness of citrus zest and fruit pits along with brown spices and juicy grapefruit and lime lend this an invigorating cast, but that does not mean it lacks for richness. I imagine it evolving interestingly for at least 4-6 years. The sweetly floral, honeyed 2005 outclasses this 2006 by dint of its clarity, refinement, and mineral persistence.
