($40):  Comte Lafon, one of Burgundy’s most talented and best producers, is known especially for his white wines from Meursault, which usually sell for triple digits upon release.  Here’s a chance to get an insight into his talents with this one from Saint-Véran, appellation bordering Pouilly-Fuissé in the Mâconnais part of Burgundy.  Opulent, reflecting both Lafon’s style and the vintage, it has enough acidity to keep you coming back throughout the meal.  Fortunately, unlike his Meursault, this beauty is for the table, not the cellar.
