Note di degustazione
Now here is a reminder that you should NEVER dismiss a wine by dint of its vintage. The 1984 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes from Comtes-Lafon ought to have been DOA. On the contrary, it offered wonderful aromatics: jasmine, honeysuckle, linden and hints of tangerine that defied all expectations. It set you up for a delicious palate, quite tensile yet elegant and focused. Hints of orange zest and mandarin line the finish that feels surprisingly long. Who knew how good this 32-year-old Meursault from a supposed written-off vintage could be? Tasted November 2016.

Slightly swampy, Tokaji-like aromas. Minerally and reasonably fresh, but lacks dimension. Beginning to break up. Short finish. This was good to drink five years ago, says Lafon, who added that this bottle was fresher than the last few he had opened. and fading.
