Note di degustazione
Very pale straw. Nervy nose. Very fine and tight. Absolutely not like the supposed archetype of Meursault. Introvert and tense. Not that long but pretty impressive. Doesn’t taste like a rich 2009 burgundy… Lots of wet stones on the end. Just a tad austere. (JR)

Tasted blind at Farr Vintners Kumeu/White Burgundy tasting. There is a slight blowsiness on the nose of the 2009 Meursault from Domaine des Comtes-Lafon: not as clean as I would have liked, the fruit not expressive. The palate is sharp on the entry with sour lemon dominating the mid-palate. Sharp and rather abrasive, this is very atypical for a 2009 white Burgundy, and it feels slightly attenuated on the finish. I wonder if this is the most representative bottle.
(bottled in March of this year): Medium straw-yellow. Complex nose melds stone fruits, flowers, honey and hazelnut. Lush and sweet in the mouth, with a perfumed orange blossom quality giving the wine a light touch. Finishes suave, harmonious and persistent. Lovely village wine
The 2009 Meursault is a classy, understated wine laced with white peaches, pears and flowers. It reveals attractive inner sweetness and perfume with a refined, polished finish.
