"The 2010 Comtes Lafon Perrières is absolutely stunning and is clearly one of the vineyards that was collected before the rains came on the 24th. The brilliant and soaring nose delivers a magical mélange of apple, a touch of pink grapefruit, tangerine, almonds, spring flower, vanillin oak, a touch of iodine and a kaleidoscopic base of stony minerality. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and shut down tight, with a rock solid core of fruit, brilliant focus and balance, snappy acids and brilliant length and grip on the perfectly balanced and electric finish. A brilliant young bottle of Perrières."
