Volnay Comtes Lafon (Domaine des) (sans prix de reserve / no reserve) 2002

The wine

The Volnay Premier Cru from the Comtes Lafon estate is made from plots of land in the appellation of Santenots (Santenots-du-Milieu). Planted across clay soil over an underbed of limestone, these vines produce wines that are particularly rich and dense for a Volnay, with an intersting structure combined with great finesse.

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.
