White Burgundy

1997 Meursault Genevrieres Chardonnay

Domaine Des Comtes Lafon White Burgundy from the esteemed 1997 vintage is a remarkable expression of Chardonnay from the coveted Meursault Genevrieres region. This wine showcases a beautifully radiant white color that hints at its elegance. On the palate, it presents a full-bodied profile, complemented by a mouthwatering acidity that elevates its complexity. The fruit intensity is pronounced, revealing layers of ripe pear, apple, and subtle stone fruit notes, which dance harmoniously with delicate nuances of toasted oak and a whisper of minerality. The tannins are soft, lending a gentle structure that supports the wine's rich character without overshadowing its vibrant fruit. As a dry wine, it offers a refreshing finish that leaves a lasting impression, embodying the essence of the region and the mastery of its winemaking tradition.
