98/100, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy, tasted June 2017. 94+, Vinous, Bright pale yellow. Soft citrus fruits and crushed rock on the musky, Slightly reduced nose. Rich, perfumed & tightly coiled, with a terrific core of acidity intensifying the orange, floral & mineral flavours. Offers compelling cut & concentration but this infant will require several years of aging. Wonderfully refined Perrieres of grand cru class. (Stephen Tanzar, 09/01/2009).
94/100, Robert Parker, nThe Roulet 2007 Mersault Perrieres is scented with musk, narcissus, helitrope grapefruit, white peach, moss, and white truffle. A terrific combination of luscious and vivacious citrus with satiny texture and underlying density of chalky minerality lends the palate richness and energy. Bitter elements of citrus rind and fruit pie are invigoratingly integrated. Toasted hazelnut, citrus oil, and hints of honey add to the allure of a finish impeccably transparent to mineral & floral nuances and uplifting in it s combination of buoyancy and refreshing brightness. This should be worth following for 10-12 years. It was his last-bottled and for a long time and least expressive 2007, says Roulot, but it is certainly overcome any reticence it might once have exhibited! Jean-Marc Roulot as usual after racked his 2007s back into the tank one year after their early September harvest, then let them rest on their fine lees there for 5-6 months before bottling, believing as so many growers that the 2007s needed time to evolve before bottling. He considers himself to have had advantage this year due to his predominants of northernly, high-elevation sites that benefitted from breezes to ward off rot, and especially able to benefit from the north wind that brought general drying and concentration at the beginning of September. Finished alcohols hover around 12.5 and lower degrees are no handicap as far as I am concerned, opines Roulot. Still, he acknowledges perhaps he might have done well to hold off a few more days with the harvest in certain parcels. (22/12/09).
