The Perrières appellation is spread over 13 hectares and is divided into four parts between Blagny and
Charmes. Along with Genevrières, it is the finest of the Meursault premiers crus. Its name comes from
an old underground quarry that once supplied stones for building the village. Domaine Latour-Giraud
owns a little plot of 14 ares, which produces a sumptuous, brilliant and complex wine with almond
nuances.
Mid lemon yellow, the weight and the sumptuous feel are certainly present. This is plump but within its corsets, ripe pears, a little citrus wash, plenty of weight. Good acidity, a certain crunchiness. Not quite so in place today as the Genevrières and with a little more warmth at the back, but Perrières majesty is certainly present. 92-
