The Domaine d'Auvenay Meursault Les Narvaux 1999, born on a limestone terroir, offers a Chardonnay of remarkable complexity. Ripe fruits, candied citrus and mineral notes compose its palette. Its palate, broad and taut, seduces with its velvety texture. Ideal with roasted sea bass or veal sweetbreads.
Nestled in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, this family estate embodies the exacting standards and passion of Lalou Bize-Leroy, an iconic figure in Burgundy.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone and marly soils, typical of Meursault, where Chardonnay flourishes into cuvées of chalky minerality and rare elegance.
- Vinification: A biodynamic approach, natural fermentations and precise ageing to reveal the purity of the fruit and the tension of the terroir.
Tasting notes for Domaine d'Auvenay Meursault Les Narvaux 1999
To the eye – A golden robe with green highlights, dense and luminous, heralding a silky texture and a generous body.
On the nose – Aromas of crisp apricot and candied lemon intertwine with notes of roasted hazelnut, rolled oats and a saline touch, like a breath of iodine carried on the sea breeze.
On the palate – A broad and textured attack, where chalky minerality engages with a lively acidity, extended by a long and precise finish marked by a persistent saltiness.
Serve at 12–14°C in a Burgundy glass to release its full complexity.
