A great, reliable French chardonnay that we get when we see it. This one performed well in it's 10th year, with nice body and smooth finish. — a month ago

A turning point vintage for the Domaine. I don’t think anyone faired better. 2013 Perrieres while still young, is in an amazing spot, showing both richness and energy wafting spiced ripe yellow fruit, pastry cream and white flowers layered in stony minerality. The palate is full and expansive with fabulous density, focus, balanced acids and a long finish. White burg at its finest…And now these Diam corks (which began in this vintage) give aging Lafon peace of mind 😅 — 3 months ago
Gosh when Lafon with some age is on, so so good. A perfect bottle of ‘09 Charmes from the pristine cellar at Emeril’s, remarkably fresh and seamlessly balanced with both ripeness and definition, a voluminous texture with layered crystalline minerality, citrusy acids and a captivating almond-pastry cream bouquet. Couldn’t have shown any better. Just look at that color! — a month ago
2012 vintage. Opened and decanted. Tasted 45 mins after decanting. Medium-heavy body with tremendous power. Nose not giving up much at that point other than nebulous, dark fruits. Flavors of spearmint, watercress, rhubarb and ash. Needed at least another hour of lounge time in the decanter to unfurl those wings somewhat but three hours woulda been better. Two bottles left so will opt for a 6 hr decant next viz if possible. 12.25.24. — 3 months ago

Perfect amount of oak, a little short but slight lingering acidity — 7 days ago
