2022 Domaine Rémi Jobard Meursault Les Narvaux

The 2022 Domaine Rémi Jobard Meursault Les Narvaux is a striking expression of village-level Meursault from one of the appellation’s most coveted lieux-dits. Perched high on the slope above many premier crus, Les Narvaux is renowned for producing Chardonnays of precision, tension, and mineral depth. In Rémi Jobard’s hands, this site delivers a wine that marries crystalline freshness with the creamy, layered texture that Meursault lovers seek.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the 2022 Les Narvaux shows a pale to medium lemon color with youthful green highlights, suggesting both energy and concentration. The nose is refined and tightly focused at first, opening with notes of lemon zest, crisp pear, and green apple, followed by white flowers, crushed stones, and a delicate touch of almond, hazelnut, and fresh butter. Subtle hints of citrus blossom and a whisper of brioche emerge with air, revealing the wine’s underlying complexity. On the palate, this Meursault is incisive and pure, with a vibrant core of citrus and orchard fruit framed by a beautifully integrated, chalky minerality. The texture is at once silky and taut, with very fine, well-judged oak bringing gentle spice and structure rather than heaviness. The finish is long, saline, and mouthwatering, leaving impressions of lemon cream, wet stone, and a faint nuttiness that will develop further with time. While already approachable in its youth for those who enjoy vivid, youthful Burgundian Chardonnay, it has the structure and acidity to evolve gracefully over 8–12 years, gaining more depth and tertiary complexity.

Production
Les Narvaux sits high on the slope above Meursault, with thin, stony soils rich in limestone and poor in clay, naturally limiting yields and emphasizing tension, minerality, and aromatic lift. Rémi Jobard is known for his meticulous work in the vineyards, practicing organic farming and careful canopy management to ensure optimal ripeness while preserving acidity. Grapes are typically harvested by hand at precise maturity, then gently pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts. Elevage often takes place in a balanced mix of barrels (with a restrained use of new oak) and sometimes larger formats, on fine lees, to build texture and complexity without overshadowing the site’s mineral-driven character. The result is a Meursault that feels both classical and finely chiseled.

Food & Serving
This 2022 Meursault Les Narvaux is a superb partner for refined dishes such as butter-poached langoustines, seared scallops, grilled lobster, or delicate white fish in beurre blanc. It also pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, veal in light cream sauces, and fine poultry terrines, as well as aged Comté, Gruyère, or mild goat’s cheeses. Serve at 10–12°C (50–54°F) to allow the aromatics and texture to fully express themselves. Young bottles will benefit from 30–45 minutes in a decanter or a few swirls in a large-bowled glass to open up the nose and soften the structure.
