Château Raymond Lafon

Dominique Lafon

Champ-Gain Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2023

Well if you live in San Diego. The only ‚real’ place to get your Burgh fix in San Diego is at the Meritage Wine Market in Encinitas. They know because they will try these. This bottle was not priced yet they asked me to sample it. Super elegant and perfectly balanced. Young, very coiled. The power is there but hiding. Yuzu, pear, hint herabceous, jasmine, chalk. Will be >100$ for sure. This producer just knocks it out of the park for both the whites and reds. — 7 months ago

Domaine des Comtes Lafon

Meursault-Genevrières 1er Cru Chardonnay 2012

When Lafon is on they’re as good as any name in white Burgundy. 2012 Genevrieres is superb after sufficient air, seamlessly balanced between richness and elegance and perfectly developed wafting waves of defined fruit, pastry cream, butterscotch and toasted almonds within its layered minerality. It wraps around the palate with killer concentration and density and a massively long, silky finish. Top tier Chardonnay. — 10 months ago

Domaine Raymond Usseglio & Fils

Cuvée Impériale Vignes Centenaires Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2017

100% Grenache från vingård planterad 1902. Nästan Pinot-lik i doften, förförisk. Många lager av smak och intryck. Större bär, svart te, mörka körsbär, nymalen svartpeppar med krydda och mineral i ett ganska långt med markerat avslut. Komplex men samtidigt livsfarligt klunkvänlig. Jättegod att dricka nu, ung och vig. — 6 years ago

Generations Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

This Cabernet begins with a glistening dark amethyst color followed by a bouquet of sweet cigar, clove, ripe blackberry, and a pinch of Madagascar vanilla. On the palette, blackberry, jammed plum, French oak and tobacco…a full bodied wine with an exceptional finish that continues to linger until the next sip! — a year ago

Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2014

Wanted to drink this after listening to Dominique’s IDTT interview. Found the best nationally priced bottle in Pasadena and it showed really nicely, particularly after being open for something like 4 hours. I like his winemaking approach here, which doesn’t seem to be about elevating it beyond its provenance. It’s a delicious, mineral wine that would crush with shellfish and was lovely in the afternoon along with The Trip to Spain. — 8 years ago
