The wine
Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées offers intense aromas of dried fruits, almonds and toasted hazelnuts and acacia flowers. On the palate, the immediate impression is rich and full-bodied yet balanced by freshness and lemony flavours. A lingering finish. This wine goes well with both fish and shellfish.
About the Producer Lafarge
Lafarge is a family-owned domain of 12 hectares, established in Volnay since the 19th century. Since then, each generation has strived to make it prosper and grow. In 1949 Michel and his father ran the domain; his son Frédéric joined them in 1978. From 1997 he started to use biodynamics in the domain and since 2000 all the vineyards are organically cultivated.
