Community Tasting Note

Friday, December 28, 2012 - This was the 2nd of 6 bottles that was done. THe undmamaged 99 Lafon Montrachet is one of the finest, most delicate and expressive wines I have ever drunk. Unfortunately the variability is just too much to bear given the price. To open a bottle of as storied a wine as this, with all the expectations and anticipation and be presented with a dark yellow oxidised liquid that you are trying to like but just can't is really unacceptable, and for it to happen this often (see the other reviews) means that Dominique should be seeking forgiveness or sending refunds. I've been buying Lafon's wines since the early nineties, I still want to be a fan, but I really worry about the integrity of a lot of what I have in my cellar from him given this.
