Le Montrachet 1996 Domaines des Comtes Lafon

Avis professionnels

The 1987 Masseto comes across as quite floral, delicate and understated, with lovely definition in its fruit. I don’t think the 1987 has too many more years of fine drinking left, but it is undeniably impressive in every way right now.

Amazing fruit and power. Ripe and thick, with lots of lemon and toasted oak--a Chardonnay given the full Burgundian treatment. There's a chewy, chalky, buttery, intensely tropical side to this full-bodied wine.
