Tasting Notes

The 2001 Narvaux is more aromatically expressive and accessible than the straight Meursault though there is plenty of reserve and enormous potential for future development. Not withstanding the more forward aromatics, the flavor profile is linear, direct and juicy yet there is a linear backbone of ripe acidity that imparts real lift to the backend. This is one very serious wine and finishes with almost painful intensity. Brilliant Narvaux.
