1989 Lafon Meursault Desiree nice place for its maturity much more interest on the palate than aromatically, butterscotch, rocks and baked lemon more reductive with air

Just ripe with slight Carmel nose yet with sharp clean acids and finishes a mineral length that rivals any Monty

Grand Finale bottle with Madi in NYC. Had high hopes for throttle given the vintage but didn’t really have the fruit for it to hold up. Searing acid and nuclear reduction which I love but just savory notes.

Came out singing out the gate then quickly flat lined. Was it a god damn root day? Hints of reduction and that long finish but must have been an off bottle. With Bombers at Gina’s.

Weightless and beautiful... But for a Meursault I wanted more opulence.
