Orange and lemon zest brown spices honeysuckle and iris mark the nose of Essa's 2006 Meursault Vieilles Vignes assembled from two complimentary sites. There is a pithy piquant intensity on the palate here (contributed by a parcel bordering Puligny) with faint bitterness nicely woven into a cream-texture and persistently juicy bright lemon and peach. This is rich yet animated Meursault possessing palpable density but also with lift. In keeping with an extended track record at this address I have no compunction recommending that one cellar this for up to a decade.
