"The 2015 Meursault Les Narvaux has a more enticing bouquet compared to 2015 Meursault Les Tillets: dried honey, a touch of orange rind and smoke emerging with time, demonstrating commendable intensity for a village cru in this vintage. The palate is well balanced with impressive energy and tension. Touches of dried honey emerge towards the finish flanked by quince and nectarine, yet it maintains good energy and finishes with good precision. There is a lot going on here, rendering this an engaging Meursault. It comes recommended."
