2004 Meursault 1er Cru Perrieres Domaines des Comtes Lafon
Two parcels, one of 2 'ouvrées' (856 sq m) situated at the south of the appellation in the 'Perrières-Dessous' and fairly young, and the other of 16 'ouvrées', also in the Perrières-Dessous but in the north of the appellation. Facing south east, these vines mature very early but with an irregular yield, (30 to 45 hl/ha). The soil is paler and with considerable limestone and marl over a subsoil of flaky slabs of limestone. It produces very powerful wines with a specific mineral flavour typical of this 'terroir'. Elegant and mineral sensations dominate whilst very long on the palate.
