Lavet på 100 % Chardonnay fra marken Clos du Cromin på Volnay-siden af Meursault. Vinstokkene på marken har en gennemsnitsalder på omkring 60 år og jordbunden på marken er meget leret, hvilket er med til at give en mineralsk karakter. Presset på en gammel Vaslin-presse. Lagret 15-18 måneder sur lie på en blanding af nye og gamle fade, Patrick Javilier mener at lang tids lagring sur lie er med til at give vinen en langt liv bagefter.
Stor intensitet og meget elegant, frisk duft med elementer af gul blomme, pære, æble og citron. Præcis, mineralsk og meget lang smag.

The 2018 Meursault Clos du Cromin has a well defined, quite mineral-driven bouquet with fleeting touches of yellow flower and nectarine. The palate is saline on the entry, a twist of sour lemon livening things up, although I feel it needs a little more weight and girth on the finish. Otherwise, this is a fine Meursault.

Straw-yellow. Fresh aromas of ripe apricot, peach and gingery spices. Concentrated and dry-verging-on-austere, with its fruit currently dominated by a stony mineral underpinning. This dry, saline wine boasts good material but it will need some time in bottle to harmonize its tartaric edge and chewy tannins. Finishes with very good length and grip. This was the highest 2017 in acidity at harvest after the Tête de Murger, noted Marion Javillier.

Fresh, high-toned aromas of apple and spearmint lifted by a positive peppery note. Dense, supple and sweet but also sappy and brisk, with its sweet lime flavor accented by green herbs and elevated by nicely integrated acidity. Balanced and long.

Dairy, apricot fruit, creamy texture. Smooth and weighty. A bit of slate on the finish. Charming.
