2018 Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Montrachet Grand Cru, Bottle (750ml)

There are fully seven barrels of the 2018 Montrachet Grand Cru-one fewer than the eight produced in 1982, but considerably more than the four that have been more or less the norm over the last decade-equating to a yield of around 45 hectoliters per hectare from Lafon's 0.32-hectare parcel. Bursting with expressive aromas of orange oil, white flowers, ripe pears, warm bread and toasted almonds, it's full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with a satiny-textured attack, an ample core of fruit and chalky grip on the impressively long finish."
