2013 Domaine Des Comtes Lafon Les Gouttes Dor Meursault Premier Cru
Domaine des Comtes Lafon is a wine producer in Burgundy making some of the most lauded (and highly-priced) white wines from Chardonnay in the region. It is located in Meursault in the Côte de Beaune subregion but has vineyards in three other villages: Chassagne-Montrachet, Volnay and Monthélie.
Comtes Lafon's house and cellar were built in 1869 by the Boch family, but its reputation as a winery was most heavily influenced by Jules Lafon, who married Marie Boch in 1894. Lafon bought many of the significant premier cru plots in Meursault and Volnay, and in 1919, parcels in the grand cru Le Montrachet vineyard.
Critical Acclaim
93 Wine Advocate
The 2013 Meursault 1er Cru Goutte d’Or has a very precise, mineral-driven bouquet with wet limestone and lime-flower scents that are almost Puligny in style. The palate is well balanced with expressive citrus fruit intermingling with peach and nectarine. It is an undeniably pretty Meursault in the making, one that I suspect will be very seductive.
92 Vinous
Rather blocked on the nose. Dry and saline on the palate, with lemon and lime flavors framed by brisk acidity and slightly hardened by the oak component. In an awkward stage today. This fruit was harvested at 12.5% potential alcohol and chaptalized to 12.8%.
