2008 Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon MâconChardonnay more |
11/16/2012 - sawira wrote: 89 pointsThis has grown in stature, and must be coming out of a bit of a closed phase, as this was singing after being opened and drinking half the bottle four nights previously. Clean, balanced, elegant, nicely smokey citrus notes on the medium finish. Good mid palate. Not notable in any way, but on peak and really quite good for its price point. |

5/19/2012 - sawira wrote: 82 pointsNice nose on opening - creamy, ripe, rich citrus. Almost Chablis-like. Flat and neutral on the palate however, with not much specific character, depth, mid-palate or finish. Easy quaffer. As I review my previous notes, this is on the way down, and fast. |

If you lean toward prem-cru Burgundy whites, don't let anyone try to talk you into Maconnais white.......not my style. |

5/25/2010 - UTPK wrote: NRFully mature now. Very open and forward nose of butter, yellow fruit (not tropical though!) and some toast, very multi-layered nose, with the leather/wood notes coming clearly after/under the fruit notes. Full bodied with good balance. A joy to drink with food, and a real bargain! |

4/4/2010 - UTPK wrote: NRQuite light in colour. Popcorn and buttered toast on the nose, but not obtrusive. A bit reductive nose, a lot of potential and depth for such a "cheap" wine, which no doubt is due to to the wine making genius of Lafon. |

5/2/2017 - Jeremy Holmes wrote: NRFrom the moment you crack the screwcap on this one its expressive and vibrant. Orchard fruits are perfectly ripe and there's some spice and florals too. It is rich and voluminous with excellent intensity for its level. There's some mineral and citrus at the finish giving freshness. |

2/14/2010 - DaleW wrote: NRThis was $15 at retail closeout, and I can't argue at price. But it's not quite the value of the other vintages of the various Lafon Macons I've tried , a bit round/ripe for my taste in Chardonnay. Sweet pears, modest acidity, hint of a flinty note. Good clean white Burg, but soft finish and not anything to go looking for. B-/B |

La bouche est ronde, sensuelle, bien qu'encore équilibrée par une jolie vivacité. Excellent surprise car plus jeune, j'avais trouvé ce vin bien fait mais pas renversant. |

3/21/2010 - angryphoton wrote: 88 pointsmuch much better on day 2 and 3, make sure to not serve it too cold. lemon zest, honey, candied corn and caramel on the nose. on the palate the acidity is bright and the body is medium-full. balance is pretty good, no heat, entry mid and finish are pretty seamless. gave a bit of nutty notes on the palate along with the citrus melange of flavors. very good for $19 which is the price i bought it, wish i had more. |
