2020 Meursault, Michel Lafarge

2020 Meursault, Michel Lafarge

The Lafarge parcels lie on the Volnay side of the village, naturally. As with many whites in 2020, this is a roaring success. It has brilliant bright freshness, and a long, sophisticated length.

Tasting notes

The 2020 Meursault Village comes from three parcels in the appellation. It has a lovely nose, well defined with touches of orange pith, citrus fruit and a touch of white flowers. The palate is lively on the entry, spicier than I was expecting with touches of ginger and lemongrass. Vibrant on the finish with a saline aftertaste. Delicious.
