What reviewers say
“De paradox van 2003. Ondanks de hitte van dit jaar is deze Macon nog springlevend, fris en vitaal, en dat is zeker de verdienste van Dominque Lafon.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
this is delightfully pure and mineral; its aromas leaning more towards ripe citrus (grapefruit) than stone fruit.
Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine is Chardonnay grown in Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine, bottled as a white. It sits in the $30–60 band, on a lowest observed 750 ml price of $53.33.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 686 other whites from France, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 1,009 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 1,022 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against White · Frankreich (687 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 1,009.
