Description of the Domaine Comtes Lafon
Robert Parker : 93-95 points
"The 2016 Volnay 1er Cru les Champans is bestowed a more powerful nose than the Clos des Chenes with perfumed, floral red and black fruit, the new oak nicely interwoven. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe and succulent tannins, real depth and body here with great nervosité on the detailed, almost electrifying finish. What a fantastic Champans from Dominique Lafon! This should be sensational once in bottle."
Allen Meadows : 93 points
"Lafon noted that this was off -50% in 2016. Despite the restrained quality of the cool, ultra-fresh and pure liqueur-like red berry fruit the breath of spice influence is quite attractive. There is excellent complexity, intensity and power to the well-detailed medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a mouth coating if youthfully austere finish offering excellent length and fine balance."
