Montrachet--Vintage 1982
Côte de Beaune, Comtes Lafon
Level: 2cm; bin soiled label
"A simply fantastic nose that is broad, deep and superbly complex, revealing ample spice notes on the ripe and now fully mature aromas where the confit of orchard fruit character continues onto the sappy, mouth coating and wonderfully concentrated flavors possess outstanding power and again, stunning depth on the layered, driving and utterly seductive finish. If one wanted to nit pick, this could perhaps have a bit more finishing precision but this wine is very much in keeping with the style of the vintage, which is to say generous and plump. A great Lafon Montrachet that is still in prime condition and if well-stored will continue to hold for another 20 years even though I underscore that it is fully mature now. Consistent notes."
