Description of the Domaine Comtes Lafon
Allen Meadows : 92-94 points
"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, strikingly complex and impressively persistent finish. At the risk of repeating myself, this is not going to wow you with its concentration but it will with its depth and overall sense of harmony and balance."

Domaine Livera Philippe
Chapelle Chambertin
This is quite deeply colored in the context of what is typical for the 2016 vintage. Ripe and deeply pitched aromas speak of plum liqueur, various dark berries and plenty of earth, sauvage and forest floor elements
Anne Boisson
Meursault
The nose combines green orchard fruit, citrus zest, mint and pastry cream, framed by elegant oak. The palate is concentrated and chalky, driven by lively acidity, with great length
Jessica Litaud
Saint Véran
The nose offers white peach, citrus and white flowers, with a touch of hazelnut. The palate is fleshy and creamy, carried by bright acidity and chalky minerality
