Intensity
A superb indulgent and fruity red wine from the unique terroir of the Côte de Beaune.
More infoEstablished in the 19th century in Volnay, at the heart of the Burgundy winegrowing landscape, Domaine Lafarge represents a unique family viticultural heritage in the heart of the Côte de Beaune. The estate cultivates Pinot Noir and Gamay vines in complantation, which means the fruit are grown on the same land. The vines, between 70 and 90 years old, are planted on clay-limestone soils and enjoy all the benefits of biodynamic viticulture. In the winery, the juice undergoes a lengthy maturation process in casks, with 5% new wood. The wines are also lightly fined and barely filtered before bottling.
The bright ruddy-red colour reveals an expressive nose with notes of red fruit subtle floral touches. The flavoursome, generous and perfectly balanced palate reveals a superb minerality culminating in a long, delicious finish.
