Domaine des Comtes Lafon
Meursault-Charmes 1er Cru Chardonnay 2009
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! — 4 days ago

The 2002 pours a bright yellow color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing and basically a meatball right down the middle of the plate. Powerful notes of ripe pineapple, some ripe stone fruit, lemon curd, marzipan, butter, minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and has a great acid and mineral zip that helps cut through the density. This is a Chardonnay that so many producers desperately want to make but there are so few that can execute with this level of precision. Of the three wines in this flight it was sort of overshadowed early by the Sauzet and the Leroy Aligote…but that changed when the food came. Paired with the roulade du lapin, this was without equal. Drink now through 2032. — 7 days ago
