Lafon's 2016 Clos de la Barre delivers pure Meursault elegance.

Concentrated pear and apple aromas leap from the glass. Lafon's precision shows immediately. Rich stone fruit fills the palate without weight. Crisp acidity cuts through the texture perfectly. Oak integration flawless—supports without interference. Mineral backbone drives the exceptionally long finish. This 2016 captures Meursault's essence: power meets finesse. Drinking beautifully now but will evolve gracefully through 2030. Classic Lafon craftsmanship.
