Lot presentation
Monthélie 1er Cru Les Duresses Comtes Lafon (Domaine des) 2017
The wine
This cuvée comes from a deep terroir with good north and east facing aspects. After the necessary ageing period, the wine develops a very nice tannic structure and intense notes of red and black fruits. Pair it with full-flavoured dishes such as game, or meats in sauce.
About the Producer Comtes Lafon
There is one domain in Meursault that stands out for both its quality and resulting worldwide reputation: Domaine des Comtes Lafon. Established at the beginning of the 19th century by a wealthy amateur called Jules Lafon, the house is today directed by his great grandson, Dominique Lafon. It uses the same family traditions and covers 13 appellations. The domain has for a long time aimed to preserve the environment in its winemaking process. It now uses biodynamics and was officially classified "organic" in 1998.
