Domaine Comtes Lafon Meursault 2023
Burgundy wine Village
This is a lovely combination of ripe orchard fruit and overt citrus aromas with a soft touch of exoticism where the latter can be found on the rich, naturally sweet and generous flavors that possess an undertone of finishing minerality on the persistent finale. This is substantially better than my in-barrel note.
Allen Meadows : 89-91 points

"Slightly more elegant aromas include those of pear, exotic tea and pretty floral nuances. There is better underlying tension to the delicious and attractively textured flavors that possess just a bit more overall depth and persistence on the firmer finale."

A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful

The beautifully layered nose offers another small step up in elegance and a large step up in aromatic complexity and spiciness to the essence of red pinot fruit and intense floral influence

Echezeaux
The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a clean and very precise bouquet: nicely focused with palpable mineralité even at this early juncture
