Montrachet Grand Cru Comtes Lafon (Domaine des)
Information
About the producer

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.

About the wine

Montrachet is a cru apart, prompting universal agreement among lovers of truly great white wines. Domaine des Comtes Lafon has delivered an extraordinary Montrachet. Grapes are harvested relatively late, helping the wine to acquire its extravagant richness. It is a wine apart, balanced as it is by an incomparable mineral power. A wine worthy of every superlative: leave it to age for at least 15 to 25 years, and drink with the finest dishes.
