Tasting Notes

Lafon’s 2009 Volnay Santenots boasts extraordinary polish and sheer class. Crushed flowers, licorice, red berries and minerals are all woven together in a fabric of notable refinement. The Santenots is quite rich, but also refined as it literally floats on the palate. This is a dazzling showing from Dominique Lafon. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039.

Score: 95

Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2019-2039 26 April 2012

This possesses the ripest nose of the group with cassis and pinot liqueur aromas dissolving into rich, mouth coating and relatively muscular flavors that possess an abundance of dry extract with lovely detail on the impressively complex and persistent finish. This should reward up to a decade of cellar time. Comments: Outstanding

Score: 91 - 93
