Lafon's precision tames Meursault's natural exuberance into something sublime.

Classic Meursault richness meets Lafon's surgical precision. Honeyed stone fruit, toasted hazelnuts, wet limestone. Rich but never heavy. Mineral spine cuts through the opulence. Creamy texture balanced by bright acidity. Long, chalky finish. This 2017 hits peak drinking now but holds another decade easily.

🍷 You want textbook Meursault without the usual flabbiness.
