it's a lovely wine, but since I taste it together with other Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon Mâcon 2012....this bottle turns out to be my least favorite one. Rather pale on palate and less expressive on the most.

I think a wonderfully balanced wine. Richer than the normal Mâcon with lively pear and golden apple flavors, but with acidity to make it a great palate opening aperitif wine or with light first courses. Perfect for a late summer evening.

Give it more time. Flavors may yet develop with more bottle age. Right now florals a bit subdued which I suspect may be due to a lack of cellar time. Smooth and drinking well, but could be better.
