Is 2024 becoming the new 2014 for white Burgundy?

I’m starting to wonder.

Another compelling tasting at @VinoVinoWine in Palo Alto: 2024 Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault-Genevrières alongside Philippe Bouzereau Meursault-Perrières.

The Bouzereau was very nice indeed, but the Latour-Giraud was the clear winner for me. Electric energy, tremendous tension, yet plenty of material and depth behind it. Not merely acidity for acidity’s sake, but real concentration and substance.

I’ve followed Latour-Giraud for several years, since tasting and buying the excellent 2022 Genevrières at @klwines, followed by the 2022 Narvaux. The domaine keeps delivering.

But the larger story may be the vintage.

The more 2024 whites I taste, the more I’m reminded of 2014 — that wonderful combination of freshness, precision, concentration and classical proportions. Wines with energy rather than opulence, yet without sacrificing substance.

Of course, 2014 has had a dozen years to prove itself. And a handful of young 2024s hardly establishes a vintage’s greatness.

Still, I’m getting increasingly excited.

For those who remember tasting the 2014s on release: are you seeing the same parallels in 2024? Or am I getting ahead of myself?

Tasting Chappellet wine from Napa today at @klwines - very yummy, though up to $300 for that baby on the right.
