2020 Meursault, Les Charmes, Comtes Lafon
The 2020 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes is brilliant, offering up a complex bouquet of pear, crisp stone fruits, clear honey, baking spices, wheat toast and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, deep and taut, it's extremely concentrated, with racy acids and an abundance of chalky structuring extract. This site has really excelled this year. ~ (96) William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 1-20-2022

Cask sample. Mid lemon. Citrus defining rounded, full fruit. Quite austere today, but with a great future ahead. Cut-crystal acidity. ~ (17.5) Matthew Hayes, JancisRobinson.com 12-1-2021
Like the Porusots, the nose is largely masked by leesy reduction. Much more interesting are the delicious and highly energetic flavors that display fine delineation on the sneaky long, overtly stony and equally austere finale. Lovely juice. ~ (94) Allen Meadows, Burghound 6-10-2022
