I’ll take the other side. Unless the 2017 Lafon is much better in my view than the 2016, which it could be, I’d take the Chablis. But I haven’t tried it.
I got both, but if a choice, the Lafon. Btw, the Moreau Naudet has a very fat bottle shape that is hard to find a place to store it in my cellar. Neat label.
I thought 2016 as well since it was basically rated the same as 2017. However, there are some interesting tasting notes on CellarTracker that made me defer to 2017. Someone mentioned a cabbage note
Is 2017 Lafon Charmes that good to take 1 bottle of that over 3 Valmur?
If one likes MN and Valmur, then? I would get it if the Lafon is either blow away good or expected to become so. But my last experiences with Lafon Charmes in 2015 and 2016 would not give me confidence. Not bad, just nothing that hits a sweet spot for me.
This is sort of where I was going. Is it that much better? Both 95 by WA with the Lafon getting the additional “+” sign. Seems that based on the responses the quality and winemaking of Lafon makes it a much better wine even though they may be the same based on scores.
The 3 for 1 assumes that MN is $100 and Lafon is $300 based on WS Pro cheapest
For me it’s all about experiencing a wine in the first place (i.e. drinking it three times instead of one does not triple the fun) and as such going with the more scarce or expensive option is an easy choice in this case.
