Note di degustazione
Quite obvious acid on the nose (less rich than the 2017 vintage tasted the night before) and without 2017’s intensity of fruit but good structure and as though the best is still to come. No sign of fading at all. Grew in the glass, however. (JR)

Good bright yellow. Deeply pitched aromas of ripe peach, pineapple, hazelnut, smoke and vanilla, plus a hint of orange blossom (Lafon used no new oak for this wine). Then firmer and less round on the palate than the basic village wine, with an edge of acidity giving the finish a leaner, slightly boney impression. This needs at least a couple years of cellaring.
A soft, pleasing wine, the 2011 Meursault Clos de la Barre is also an excellent choice for near-term drinking. Pliant and expressive, the 2011 is laced with anise, pear, spice and floral notes. The open, generous style is pure 2011.
