2019 Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon
|
|
|
Domaine des Comte Lafon is regarded as one of the greatest exponents of White Burgundy wines on the Cote d'Or. In 1999 Dominique Lafon founded Domaine Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon in the Maconnais, a region historically known for high volume, industrial wines. Bringing the meticulous methods and ideologies from the Cote d'Or, Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon's biodynamic vineyards look to harness the full potential of the Maconnais, bucking the historical trends. Dominique has astutely placed his faith in the very talented on-site winemaker, Caroline Gon, who has produced yet another outstanding vintage in 2019.

2019 Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine ‘Clos du Four’
Usually $84 - Special Offer $79
Mid-slope, plain east-facing. Good width of citrus aroma – in this case, a little oak underpinning is visible. Extra-direct, extra-fresh too. Really a juicy, mouth-watering, mineral wine but the citrus flavour sweeps you along beautifully. I think this great – right down to the subtle halo of salinity in the finish!

2019 Viré-Clessé
750 ml Usually $84 - Special Offer $79
Magnum (1.5L) Usually $174 - Special Offer $164
From Viré – from Chateau Viré since 2009. Older vines and plenty of clay here. Try to harvest earlier here. 10-12 different parcels. This is open, fresh, more elegant and faintly floral. Bubbling juicily over the palate -a different style again – more sunshine in this wine, but vibrant energy too. A super finish – really a growth of juicy partly saline flavour. Excellent again

2019 Pouilly-Fuissé
Usually $112 - Special Offer $104
The only wine that also uses some barrels in elevage – together with demi-muids and foudres. Bottled in October, north-facing vines here, quite high A smaller more golden-fruited nose. Hmm – that’s a beautiful balance of open flavour, mouth-watering, like the nose a little more golden fruit but no real weight – a super finishing line of flavour too – ooh fantastic!
