Powdery lemon, tons of dry extract, pear, excellent cut and minerality, lemon, lime peel, tart and racy; quite youthful. I would love to revisit in two years. |

5/18/2024 - Rani Likes this wine: 89 pointsTasted blind. Harmonious and fresh, but a bit simple. Hint of white flowers, not a lot of acidity, I didn’t think it was a burgundy but perhaps a good Chardonnay from NZ. |

Once again Lafon demonstrates no other producer delivers more refinement, finesse, fruit purity and utterly mesmerizing Chardonnay. At least not for me. Like a Brown Trout rising for a delicate #18 Bluewing Olive dry fly I'm drawn to Lafon's compelling white Burgs. Weightless and so dam pretty! Bravo, my favorite White Burg producer! Definition of ethereal finesse. Thanks Candie! |

4/29/2024 - Burgundy Al wrote: 87 pointsVolnay 1er Cru 2005 Tasting (Chicago IL): At first I feared this was very advanced, but with a few minutes realized it was still drinkable. Plenty of butterscotch with caramel apple and some hints of apple cider. Very good density for its level, but too mature. My previous bottle opened two years ago was much better. |

4/29/2024 - Bordeaux_Jon wrote: 90 pointsContrary to prior reviews, my bottle seemed in a dumb phase. It's certainly a pleasant drink with a stone fruits and a very rounded finished. Although perhaps a bit of an oxymoron, it felt like a plush Chablis. To me, it seemed that the baby fat of a young White Burg had dissipated but has yet to have been replaced by the complexity of age. If representative, I'd wait 5 years to drink this. I have had some amazing older vintages, eg. 2010. |

4/22/2024 - enthusiastic_amateur Likes this wine: 89 pointsWell balanced with good acidity throughout. Stone fruits & citrus along with oak presence. Everything is there but not at the level expected for the price point. Tough QPR, as these prices have soared. |

3/8/2024 - dream wrote: 89 pointsFascinating to taste this wine which is clearly in decline now and beyond where I like to drink aged white Burgundies. That's just a personal preference but the bottle was quite sound and while the acidity and verve were gone, the layered flavors of caramel and honeysuckle were lovely. The texture was oily and the finish lacked complexity at this stage but a treat to try. |

3/6/2024 - dream Likes this wine: 94 pointsWow, what a youthful bottle of aged white Burgundy! Can this really be a village-level wine and age like this?? Great acidity and intensity for a '90 with a beautifully taut, complex, mineral-driven finish. |
