Dominique Lafon Description
Considered one of the finest winemakers in France, Dominique Lafon produces coveted white Burgundies from some of the greatest vineyards in the Cote de Beaune. Always hungry for new challenges, he purchased 14 hectares of vines in the Maconnais in 1999. He believes strongly in the potential of the region, but feels that too few vignerons have attempted to realize that potential. Thus, in the very same spirit he runs his renowned Meursault property, Dominique utilizes biodynamic viticulture, intense soil rejuvenation, tight yield control, and rigorous green harvesting to produce some of the most complex, vibrant and impressive wines the region has ever seen.
In 2008, Dominique Lafon, winemaker/owner of the renowned Comtes Lafon estate in Meusault, started his own eponymous label – and currently works approximately 4.5 hectares in Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Volnay, and Beaune. Legally, the Dominque Lafon brand has négociant status, but it is operated like a small domaine and Dominique rarely buys grapes. Total production annually is only 400 cases. Exceptional quality and value is found here, especially the Meursault-like Bourgogne Blanc!
The vineyards are farmed with the same principles of organics and biodynamics as Comte Lafon and are vinified with the same care and attention to quality that spurred Dominique’s reputation in the region and around the world.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Black cherry and violet aromas and flavors are singed by smoke and spice notes in this sleek, linear red. Nicely integrated and firm on the finish, with room to grow. Best from 2018 through 2027. 300 cases made. –BS
