April 23, 2023 - A clear step up from the '97 Clos de la Barre, very serious wine with lots of lemon, wet stone, some hazelnut, good acidity and a long finish.

September 17, 2020 - Lovely nose from start, with some reductive qualities but still quite fresh and full of orange peel flavours. Drinking beautifully from now but drink up.

May 2, 2015 - The 1995 Lafon Perrières is getting a little fatigued at this stage, offering up a mature bouquet of tangerine, creamy oak vanillin, chicken broth and mushroom, but with no trace of oxidation. The wine holds up well in the glass but never really develops, and while there is still some acidity and texture here the overall impression is rather deflated. Perhaps this was just over-worked during its elevage?

November 22, 2014 - Tenth Annual White Truffle Dinner (Chez Weber - Chicago IL): In Lafon Perrieres vertical. I hadn't has this wine in at least 4 or 5 years, but remember enjoyed it immensely. Mature stone fruit, at a great combination of fresh fruit and evolution. Dense, spicy and very long.
