October 6, 2023 - Lafon Montrachet vertical with some great champagne and reds. (Four Seasons, Minneapolis, MN): Vertical tasting of Montrachet 2000-2019: Slightly advanced with baked apple notes. Round and rich. Lower acidity than others. Lower third.

October 6, 2023 - Twelve Vintages of Lafon Montrachet: Slightly advanced, but not in a premox sense. A good wine, but not a vintage that reflects the markets initial optimism of fifteen years ago.

April 30, 2023 - This is on the verge of advanced and oxidized for me, still enjoyable round Montrachet but on the palate showing a bit tired

April 30, 2023 - Casual Sunday Dinner?: Individual OWC. Fat, rich, yellow fruit, mineral, huge. Textbook Montrachet but missing some personality compared to the other two in the flight. 95
