Dominique Lafon

Dominique Lafon is widely known for his almost unattainable Burgundies, with vineyard holdings stretching from Meursault to Montrachet. They family has owned vines in Meursault since the1800s and have been recognized as one of the top producers there since Dominique took over in the early 80s. In 2008, independent from his family, he purchased a tiny 4.5 hectares in Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Volnay, and Beaune. This year, we also see a new release from Dominique, his Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc, of which only a handful of barrels are made.

“I didn’t wish to vinify at Domaine des Comtes Lafon as I wanted to try to keep a distinct separation between the two. With my own label I can build on what I learn and I can afford to experiment. I am constantly learning. If I had to define the style of the DL wines, I would say that the wines have a bit more tension than the wines of Domaine des Comtes Lafon. The élevage on the wines is shorter and the plots are mostly located on the upper part of the hillsides, which gives the wines an interesting minerality and tension." – Dominique Lafon”
 
We also have a tiny splash of two Domaine des Comte Lafon wines-- bottles of Meursault AC and Meursault 1er Cru Porusots-- a rare site indeed.

Quantities are tiny.  Wines arrive tomorrow.

Wines are priced at some of the lowest in the US, no further discounts available!
