Dominique Lafon Volnay Cru les Lurets 1er Cru (750ML)

From Volnay

Vintage:	2019
Description:	92 Bh / 91-94 Jm / 91-93+wa. Tasting note: An equally perfumed and pretty nose combines ripe and very fresh red cherry and raspberry scents with those of soft floral and spice wisps. The delicious, round and lacy flavors possess a gorgeously refined texture while exuding a refreshing salinity on the bitter cherry pit inflected finale. This is lovely and a wine that already possesses good depth. Outstanding. –Allen Meadows, Burghound. A paltry yield of just 3 barrels from 7 ouvrees. Same bright pink purple colour, the nose has a sense of precision and a certain depth of fruit, it is in the end more noble than the Beaunes and with at least equal persistence. Tasted: October 2020-Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Derived from the same parcel that produced Lafon's communal Volnay, part of which is entitled to this grander appellation, the 2019 Volnay 1er Cru Les Lurets offers up aromas of sweet berry fruit, plums, raw cocoa and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, deep and nicely structured, with fine concentration and lively acids, it has turned out very well. –William Kelley, The Wine Advocate.
