Meursault luxury meets surgical precision—Lafon's 2017 Perrières sings limestone poetry.

Pure Burgundian theater. Rich golden pour releases waves of lemon curd, hazelnut, wet stone. Classic Meursault richness tempered by Lafon's surgical touch. Perrières limestone cuts through opulent fruit—citrus pith, white flowers, crushed shells. Mid-palate explodes with concentrated yellow fruit, vanilla bean, mineral dust. Texture rivals silk—creamy yet focused. Acidity drives everything forward. Finish stretches minutes—honey, gunflint, sea spray. This vintage captures Lafon magic: powerful yet refined. Drink now for hedonistic pleasure or cellar fifteen years. Meursault doesn't get more precise. Textbook premier cru showing terroir and winemaking mastery in perfect harmony.
