Latour-Giraud Meursault Narvaux 2020 (750ML)

91-93 JM / 90-92 BH

From the upper part of Les Gorges de Narvaux. Mid lemon colour, a little biscuit on the nose, wood reduction, again it is hyper-concentrated, with dense ripe lemon fruit, some acidity. A little bit harder to pull together today. Possibly less intensity than the village Meursault, though with a nice tingle behind. Very pure. Tasted: 10/1/2021.--Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

Tasting note: A slightly riper and entirely classic Meursault nose features notes of brown nut butter, acacia and white orchard fruit compote that is trimmed in subtle citrus nuances. There is excellent drive to the super-sleek and overtly stony medium-bodied flavors that possess impressive density on the bone-dry, youthfully austere and tightly wound finale. This is clearly built-to-age and is a wine that should repay up to a decade of keeping. Sweet Spot. Outstanding. --Allen Meadows, Burghound
