A sublime, seamless wine, the 2010 Montrachet impresses for its fabulous balance and sense of harmony. All the elements are in the right place. Floral aromatics meld effortlessly into highly nuanced fruit. Hints of smoke, slate and mint add complexity. Not surprisingly, the Montrachet has tightened up considerably since I tasted it from barrel last fall. The 2010 is going to require a measure of patience. Today, it is an infant, and also shows some of the effects of its recent bottling in June, 2012. Lafon’s parcels lie on the Chassagne side, but the wine itself shows more of a Puligny-like finesse. Anticipated maturity: 2016+. (Not yet released) Comtes Lafon’s 2010 whites are just as impressive from bottle as they were in barrel. Dominique Lafon told me the wines changed quite a bit and found their precision during fining. The 2010s at Comtes Lafon are tight and powerful, with plenty of underlying fruit and depth. The 2010s were bottled between March and early June 2012.

(bottled four days before my visit): Orange blossom, iodine and vanilla on the nose. Pure, silky and sharply delineated, if still a bit youthfully compact. This, too, boasts fully ripe, intense fruit (more soft citrus than lemon) and powerful minerality with no sign of overripeness. Most impressive today on the superb, slowly building back end, which lingers for a minute or more. Offers an uncanny blend of power and finesse. Don't even think of opening this until 2020.
