Meursault Genevrieres

Comte Lafon Meursault Genevrieres 1989

By Steen Öhman June 26, 2020 -

The Meursault Genevrieres 1989 is a rare bird, but a still-delightful glass. As a vintage, 1989 was a rich, somewhat dense year. But the Genevrieres is still fresh and lively. It has an unctuous, silky character rarely found in white Burgundies - generous and complex with distinct mature notes and …

Comte Lafon Meursault Goutte d’Or 1988

By Steen Öhman June 26, 2020 -

The '88 Meursault Goutte d'Or is perfectly mature and in balance. I have tasted quite a few 1988s from Lafon, and while some have been bigger, this Goutte d'Or has perfect hedonistic balance and depth. A gorgeous, mature wine with intense notes of hazelnuts, acacia honey, and a hint of hay. …

Comte Lafon, Meursault Genevrieres 2007

By Steen Öhman January 18, 2019 -

The Meursault Genevrieres is a rare bird ... but also a delightful glass. The 2007 is starting to unfold - beginning with some hazelnuts in the nose interlinked with the citrus infused minerality. Not fully mature, but in a beautiful place with the palate unfolding a relatively rich fruit. What can …
