What Lafon achieved in 1991 is extraordinary. His wines are the greatest wines of the vintage. Lafon rarely filters his wines. In 1991 he put most of the cuvees of white wine in the bottle with neither fining nor filtration. Lafon's 1991s are the wines of the vintage. Modestly, Lafon says he took some unnecessary gambles by waiting out the rains and picking late, harvesting fruit that was not diluted. The results are splendidly rich, full-bodied wines with amazing intensity. They are as exceptional as the 1990s, and superior to Lafon's 1988s, 1987s, and 1986s. Average yields were 25 hectoliters per hectare, compared to 55-70 at other domaines. The 1991 Meursault-Les Desirees is unfined/unfiltered, opulent, and super-rich. This wine tends to be among the fruitiest and most obvious of Lafon's wines, but in 1991 it possesses a level of extract and complexity that I have rarely detected in the past. This long, full-bodied wine will be among the shortest-lived of the vineyard-designated Meursaults. Importer: A Peter Vezan Selection, various importers, including Classic Wine Imports, Boston, MA.
