89-90 / 100 Robert Parker Based on his holdings in En La Barre, along with Luraule and Chaumes de Narvaux next door to and above Gouttes d’Or respectively, and this year incorporating two barrels of young vines Genevrieres that were late finishing malo, Lafon’s 2006 Meursault features refreshing lime and pineapple; suggestions of raw rather than toasted nuts and grain; a silken but not at all creamy texture; and a long finish with cress, chalk, and pepper accents. This should be worth cellaring for 3-5 years. The almost briny, deeply savory 2005 is impressive if less refreshing or fun to drink today. Wine Advocate #180 Dec 2008
16 / 20 Jancis Robinson This wine was in the difficult position of following Lafon’s extremely opulent Mâcon Milly, Clos du Four (see Heritiers du Comte Lafon notes) which may have affected how inexpressive and tight it seemed on the nose. Pretty dry, astringent and dumb although it grew on the end of the palate. http://www.jancisrobinson.com/tastings/view/476507?from_se..
90 / 100 Allen Meadow This is a lovely combination of ripe orchard fruit and overt citrus aromas with a soft touch of exoticism where the latter can be found on the rich, naturally sweet and generous flavors that possess an undertone of finishing minerality on the persistent finale. This is substantially better than my in-barrel note.
