The Meursault Goutte d'Or (6 year old vines) has intense, golden fruit, anise, and floral aromas and an intense, broad, medium-to-full-bodied, and candied almond-laden flavor profile. It is a more refined and detailed wine than one would expect from this vineyard (generally characterized by its power). It will be at its best if consumed before 2002. The rating, with the range of scores in parentheses, indicates the wine was tasted from cask, not bottle.
Ente has met with a number of first-rate importers (including Eric Solomon, Robert Kacher, and Peter Weygandt) but had not yet selected a representative as this report went to print.
