Meursault Narvaux, Louis Jadot 2020

Pale lemon yellow, attractive fresh bouquet, some elegance, a feel of the hillside. A lovely citrus incision through the middle of the white flesh, plenty to get your teeth into here. Tasted: November 2021

The 2020 Meursault Narvaux (Domaine Louis Jadot) is excellent, offering up aromas of pear, orange oil, freshly baked bread and almonds. Medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, it's rich and concentrated, with racy acids and a long, saline finish. This is a cuvée that goes from strength to strength.

Pale lemon colour. Lemon curd, lemon sherbet and fine baking spices on the nose. This is open and showing well already. The palate follows in the same vein, with generous fruit and a creamy texture. There is a wonderful, refreshing line of acidity that adds real zip and a moreish edge. Finely balanced with a long finish of pure stone fruit. It should offer excellent drinking pleasure from an early stage.
