Aug 2nd, 2020Tangy medium bodied accessible but of course wait 5 to 8 years. Great effort.

Nov 7th, 2019Tasty 2014 from Lafon. Wonderful precision and great acidity with length and richness. Would benefit from another few years but delicious now with a good decant.

Sep 8th, 2017Struck me as being very energetic and powerful. Laser acid and linear in the best way possible. Has the classic broad Meursault character but the wine just drives across the palate and lingers for quite some time. Albeit too young this was incredible. Can't get over the tension here, pure salvation. A fine example of how the right amount of reduction can send a wine to the next level. I want to drink this everyday for the next 10+ years.
