Winery - Domaine des Comtes Lafon
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich, soft and gentle, with light tannins, ripe fruit and a pronounced freshness, touched with black cherry. This is not for long-term aging, but it’s worth waiting for 2–3 years.

Full of fruit, this rich wine packs plums and cherries into a style that is sumptuous, with great ripeness. The tannins are soft, sweet and roll well into the rounded structure.

With its ripe fruit, touched by wood, this is a full wine, the freshness a lively burst in the background. Bright green plum and citrus give everything a great lift.

Dominated by caramel and vanilla, this is a clean wine that has weight of white fruit even if it is not showing at this stage. It needs a few more months in bottle to fully integrate.

Very soft fruit, with lovely ripe flavors, this white-fruited wine brings delicious white pear flavors highlighted by citrus flashes. Already very attractive.

Ripe fruit in the mouth, with a fine layer of green plums, apricots and balancing acidity. An open wine, generous in texture and weight, ready to drink in the next few months.

From a walled clos in the village of Chardonnay, this is a rich wine, full of creamy caramel-tinged fruit, ripe and spicy, beautifully soft and opulent.

A structured wine, the weight and severe mineral character showing through richness. White peaches balance the acidity and a smoky layer from wood. It is drinkable now, but really worth aging a year.

With its smoky wood, complex spice and yellow fruit flavors, this is already hinting at its gorgeous, ripe character. It needs time, at least 3–4 years, for its full potential to develop, but this is impressive.

Rounded wine, the fruit soft and open, contrasting with an elegant texture. There is a light minerality over yellow fruits, spice and vanilla flavor. Age for another year or two.
