Reviews of 2004 Girardin, Vincent Meursault Charmes du Dessus 1er Cru Chardonnay
91-93 points, Stephen Tanzer October 2005 Pale yellow color. Sexy nose combines pineapple, coconut, soft citrus scents and hazelnut. Fat and creamy, but with solid minerality and underlying grip. Nicely aromatic and expressive, with harmonious acidity framing and extending the wine's flavors. This is delicious-and impressively long for the vintage. 91-93 points
93 points, Wine Enthusiast December 2006 The complexities of Burgundy! This is the vineyard next to the more familiar Les Charmes, just up the slope—hence dessus, meaning above. This vineyard gives a mineral character, hinting at Chablis, but with some Meursault richness as well. Hold this wine, with its delicious vanilla flavors, and it will be ready in a year.
90 points, Wine Spectator February 2007 A touch of licorice adds a distinctive note to this lean, firmly structured, powerful white. Shows honey, apple and lemon flavors, with a viscosity midpalate, so be patient. Best from 2009 through 2015. 150 cases imported. –BS
About 2004 Girardin, Vincent Meursault Charmes du Dessus 1er Cru Chardonnay
About the Winery Girardin, Vincent
Domaine Vincent Girardin can trace its roots back to the 17th century.
It was originally located in Santenay in the Cote de Beaune, but in
2002 Girardin moved the winery to Meursault. He buys fruit from
old-vine parcels up and down the Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune.
Vincent Girardin has been hailed as the "golden boy" by Wine Spectator
and has produced some of the finest wines coming from Burgundy, which
has been noted vintage after vintage by wine critic Robert Parker.br
