November 12, 2021 - Citrus, minerals, lemon pie and hazelnuts on the nose. Palate has good richness and minerality. The wine has moderate plus weight and length. The balance between its fruit and acidity is excellent. It has entered its drinking window.

July 30, 2021 - Still young, needs time to open up and it does open, full, rich and large on the palate, great length. Delivered with time in the glass.
Très beau après du temps dans le verre, riche, plein, large, profond, longue finale. 92-93 -

July 30, 2021 - Blind. Good pedigree, large and has good weight. On reveal I would have expected a little more given the producer and vintage but still a very good burgundy. No oxidative notes.

January 10, 2021 - couleur doré plutôt pale sans signe d'évolution. Nez délicat, aérien de fleurs blanches, petite note citronnée avec un peu d'élevage tres bien intégré. Bouche équilibré, acidité bien présente en lien avec le millesime. Un peu court en fin de bouche. Tres belle bouteille

February 15, 2020 - Very enjoyable, well balanced but somewhat leaking of character for a Meursault by Lafon
