Comtes Lafon, Meursault Barre Size:12x750ml in this 2018 wineHere the nose is slightly riper still yet manages to remain agreeably fresh with its layered nose of essence of pear and variety of floral scents. The rich, opulent and very rounded medium bodied flavors brim with dry extract that buffers the moderately firm acid spine supporting the solidly persistent finish that also exhibits a hint of bitter citrus.
