Mercurey 1er Cru La Mission Monopole 2016

- 90 points -

Notes of citrus zest, jasmine, pastry cream and fresh apples precede the 2016 Mercurey 1er Cru La Mission Blanc, an elegantly textural, medium-bodied white with excellent cut, concentration and grip. It's a lovely example of white Mercurey that is appreciably superior to the somewhat overripe 2015 version.
