Lafon 2021 Meursault Charmes
2021 Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Meursault, 1er Cru Les Charmes
Decanter
95 Points
The ’21 Charmes from Lafon shows more definition and lemony freshness than customary for this lieu-dit, yet it is not lacking richness. There are pitch-perfect aromas of lemon peel and white flowers but also richer notes of nectarine and marzipan. The texture is silky and surprisingly vibrant. It will open to show its full potential in a few years and should age well for the next twenty years. The grapes come from a 1.71-hectare parcel in Charmes-Dessus near the border with Puligny. Drinking Window: 2025 - 2045. Charles Curtis MW 31 Oct 2022
