  • 2003 Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine - France, Burgundy, Mâconnais, Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine (9/28/2005)
    With spaghetti in uni-mustard cream sauce, garnished with surigoma and strips of nori.
    Bright clear ripe yellow. Very slight whiff of wood on the nose followed by ripe citrus, seashells, and rounder stone fruit. Palate entry is sweet apple with a very full, ripe, and round mid-palate. Finish is clean, dry, and persistent with a little lemon and some warm stone in the back of the throat/nose. There is no need to wait on this. It is ready for business and very ripe, but stays on just on the taut side of the line. Clearly of its vintage but with the balance to be enjoyable throughout the meal (and for one more glass after).

Never teach a pig to sing. It only wastes your time and frustrates the pig.
