Aromas of pear, orange peel, honeycomb, toasted almonds and white flowers introduce Lafon's 2019 Meursault Clos de la Barre, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping wine with fine concentration, chalky structuring extract and lively acids. While its depth of fruit may lend it deceptive youthful charm, it's built to age.
There is a little lime touch to the colour. The fruit on the nose starts discreetly, but with its usual crisp precision, then swells enormously on the palate, fresh peaches, then better tension behind. This will make a classic, precise and steely Clos de la Barre.
