Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon, Macon, Clos de la Crochette

hay colored. sweet lemon nose with a hint of butter. medium bodied with medium acidity and nice viscosity. lemon oil and faint almond cream with a good mineral component. lemon zest on the finish. a textural wine that is easy to drink, ideally with lemon buttered fish.

Light golden yellow in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of lemons, apples & lemon curd with overtones of minerals & floral notes, stony, chalky & a slight hint of oak. Medium-light bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth texture, ripe fruit flavors of lemons, apples & pears with minerals & a hint of oak. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present although it should develop slightly further with additional aging.

Melon, apple, buttery

Un nez peu aromatique au départ mais qui s’ouvre sur des notes un peu citronnées, beurrés et très élégant tout en typé Chardo. Une bouche délicieuse, acidité très vive, voire tranchante presque mais avec une rondeur et jn gras qui en font un ensemble très équilibré. Longueur fort appréciable, un délice et un vin très sérieux compte tenu de l’appellation. 90-91 pts

Nose of toasted oak but subtle. Green apple, other citrus notes, some minerality. Very crisp acidity. Very good.

Knightsbridge Annual Holiday Burgundy/Champagne Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL) : Tasting, brief note. Clearly some reduction, but good substance comes through on palate.

Linear and dry.
