The 2010 Meursault boasts serious depth for a village wine. Intense white stone fruits and piercing minerality wrap around the palate. In 2010, the Meursault is pure weight and power, not to mention a serious wine among its pears. It should be even better in another year, once it settles down a bit. Today, it is a little on the bombastic side. Anticipated maturity: 2013+.

Comtes Lafon’s 2010 whites are just as impressive from bottle as they were in barrel. Dominique Lafon told me the wines changed quite a bit and found their precision during fining. The 2010s at Comtes Lafon are tight and powerful, with plenty of underlying fruit and depth. The 2010s were bottled between March and early June 2012.
