More infoThe terroir of Puligny-Montrachet is composed of limestone and clay soils, which bring both richness and minerality to the wines. These soils are particularly well-suited to the cultivating Chardonnay. Here, the vines grow on well-exposed slopes, ensuring excellent sunlight and optimal ripening of the grapes. In the vineyard, the harvest is carried out by hand with great care to preserve the integrity of the fruit. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats with native yeasts. The wine ages for 12 months in oak casks, including 40% new wood and is bottled without filtration.
The pale yellow by is graced with golden glints. The extremely refined and delicate nose is marked by aromas of white-fleshed fruit, white flowers and hazelnut. On the palate, the attack is lively and fresh, bringing fine tension. The mid-palate is ample and creamy, revealing ripe fruit and a silky texture.

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.
