Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Volnay Santenots du Milieu 2009

95 / 100 Robert Parker
Lafon’s 2009 Volnay Santenots boasts extraordinary polish and sheer class. Crushed flowers, licorice, red berries and minerals are all woven together in a fabric of notable refinement. The Santenots is quite rich, but also refined as it literally floats on the palate. This is a dazzling showing from Dominique Lafon. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039.
200, The Wine Advocate

92 / 100 Allen Meadow
A distinctly ripe nose of cassis and pinot liqueur aromas dissolves into rich, mouth coating and relatively muscular large-scaled flavors that possess an abundance of dry extract. There is really lovely detail on the impressively complex and persistent finish. This should reward up to a decade of cellar time and as a point of comparison, this isn't as fine as the 2010 version but it's significantly more powerful.
