Lafon's Goutte d'Or delivers profound honeyed richness with crystalline precision.
Profound aromatics leap from glass. Honeycomb sweetness mingles with crushed hazelnuts. Stone fruits—white peach, apricot—layer beneath mineral spine. Palate shows remarkable density without weight. Creamy texture carries citrus acidity effortlessly. Oak integrated perfectly, adding spice notes. Long finish reveals wet limestone, brioche. This 2019 drinks beautifully now but will reward cellaring through 2035. Classic Lafon precision meets Goutte d'Or power. Exceptional.
