The wine

The Volnay Clos des Chênes Premier Cru is a fine and seductive wine, with discrete and silky tannins and strong aromas of violets and red fruits.

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.
