Jean-Denis died in a tragic traffic accident in 2002

maybe a decade

The acidity and tannins sit apart for now

The mouth feel of the medium-bodied flavors is notably finer than that of the Frémiets with the same minerality and punch

This lovely effort will need at least a decade of bottle age

Benjamin Leroux, Meursault Narvaux Blanc other_regions_australia Jean-Denis died in a tragicCool, pure and very pretty aromas of roasted nut, petrol and a blend of white orchard fruit scents. There is both fine richness and volume to the solidly concentrated and intensely mineral driven middle weight flavors that conclude in a youthfully austere, balanced and sleek finale. This is an excellent Meursault villages though note that its one that is going to need at least a few years of keeping as its pretty tightly wound at present.
