Description
Huber-Verdereau, Mercurey 1er Cru ‘Blanc Les Combins’
This Mercurey 1er Cru Blanc exhibits a pale golden yellow core with slightly green reflections at the meniscus. With air, the nose offers incredible charm and personality with classic white Burgundian notes of concentrated yellow apple, white peach and bosc pear along with yellow plum, fresh butter, a touch of hazelnut, budding lime blossoms, a hint of oyster shell and just a kiss of baking spice. The medium-bodied palate boasts high acidity, pronounced minerality and a more citrus-driven fruit profile than the nose with flavors of lemon peel, lime blossom, freshly cut yellow apple and a mouthwatering crushed limestone finish. This refreshing, crisp Burgundian example is drinking great right now but will most likely peak in the next two to three years
