Reviews 89-91 points Wine Advocate "The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chenes offers up aromas of plummy fruit, candied peel and smoky grilled meats, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny palate that's pure and melting this year, concluding with a stony finish. It's a pretty middle-weight Clos des Chenes that will drink well in its comparative youth. (WK)" 92 points John Gilman "The 2017 Clos des Chenes chez Lafon is an excellent wine in the making, offering up a refined and nicely red fruity bouquet of cherries, red plums, raw cocoa, gamebird, a complex base of soil tones, cedar and woodsmoke. On the palate the wine is pure, full and nicely structured, with a good core of fruit, fine-grained tannins, tangy acids and lovely focus and grip on the long, refined and complex finish. (JG)"
