Frederic Lafarge describes 2011 as a "classic vintage considering the early harvest. The wines show great precision of terroir, with low sugars and plenty of material. They're like the better vintages of the '80s." Veteran Michel Lafarge, whose experience with this domain goes back to 1949, compared 2011 to 1952 "in its material and suavity." Interestingly, Frederic finds the 2011s to be purer and more primary than the 2010s, and believes they will be better to drink after the '10s.
