Copper, almost bronze Nose: Tropical fruit, caramel apple, doughy (someone said Cinnabon), brandy, smoky but not flinty Caramel, green apple, lime not lemon, white pepper, flabby texture but still delicious Les Narvaux is a lieux-dits (A step below premier cru) vineyard in Meursault. Girardin always does a great job here, this 2002 has stood up very well and that nose gave us a lot of enjoyment tonight. Drink 'em if you got 'em!

Outstanding with trout, gnocchi in butter in sage sauce and delicata squash. Chilled for 25 minutes -- improved substantially as it warmed up. Cellar tracker should change its drinking window. This wine is plainly not beyond its prime.

Yellow straw in color. No premox and much better than expected. Steely minerality on the nose. Minerals, butter and a hint of lemon on a smooth and balanced palate. Very enjoyable.

A nice Meursault but nothing special.
