lot's of secondary and tertiary flavor like honey, smoke, toast, earth. But there is also some stone fruits and dried fruits. The acidity is surprising good which gives this bottle an excellent structure. Very old Lafon style.

Incredible, superb acidity perfectly balanced with signature old Lafon richness, and everything in between. Honey, white fruit, pear florals, orange, still some passion fruit-like acidity, earthy, woody. Keeps getting broader on the palate, parting a profound mark with every sip. Really hitting the upper boundary, and quite exemplary of old Lafon. 94-95
