Well if you live in San Diego. The only ‚real’ place to get your Burgh fix in San Diego is at the Meritage Wine Market in Encinitas. They know because they will try these. This bottle was not priced yet they asked me to sample it. Super elegant and perfectly balanced. Young, very coiled. The power is there but hiding. Yuzu, pear, hint herabceous, jasmine, chalk. Will be >100$ for sure. This producer just knocks it out of the park for both the whites and reds. — 8 days ago

Actually a very good aligote. Shared it with the bartender and we all blinded it together and he called it! Fun — 2 months ago

Very juicy and flashy. Almost too bright. Needs to settle down. Cherry, hint blueberry quite rich at this point. Hint black tea, touch bitter. Needs at least 5 years to loose its baby fat. Enjoy now or wait. Very well made & DIAM30 cork. Unfortunately 100$. — 3 months ago

So good, ocean, lemon, lemon curd, hint of stone fruit, long lingering finish. Outstanding wine. Pretty great value at just under 50 dollars. — 6 days ago

Definitely a wine that needs to be served closer to room temperature than the fridge and let breathe just a bit. Complex bouquet comes alive as it warms with key lime pie, caramel apples, white flowers, and Chantilly cream underlaid by chalky marl aromas. Awesome, but then again, you expect that in this price range from a premier cru. — a month ago

2023 vintage. First Sauternes I tasted from this great vintage, and this is very good indeed. Château Lafon has a long history, and a part of its vineyards form an enclave within the vineyards of Château Yquem. In the 1922(!) edition of Cocks & Ferry it is considered to be "in the league of the best crus of Sauternes". It was bought from the Lafon family in the early 20th century by the Dufour family, whose 4th generation runs the estate these days. Honey, candied pineapple and flowers. Mouthwatering acidity keeps the sweetness in check. Good length too. Terrific value. — 2 months ago

Always delivers with its generous red cherry, berry fruit, spice, earth, mineral, fresh floral & violets. Just hitting its prime with many yrs left — a month ago

2014 vintage. Last tasted 07.04.25 (9.3) and 01.30.25 (9.3). Decanted with some sed and tasted after 30 mins. Consistent with previous tastings in 2025. Hint of richness up front, then very businesslike afterwards. Fairly dry but began to fold a modicum of fruit into the proceedings a spell ago. Quintessential, affordable BDX with a decade of service tendered out in the boonies but back in town again and starting to hit the hot spots. Lean but not mean. Strike up the conversation in the next year or so and you two just might hit it off. 09.25.25. — 2 months ago
