About this bottle

Wine Type: White
Vintage: 2023
Bottle Size: 750mL
Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Appellation: Pouilly-Fuissé AOC
Country: France
Region: Burgundy – Mâconnais
Producer: Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon
Winemaker: Dominique Lafon & team
Vineyard: Limestone slopes across select Fuissé parcels
Soil: Jurassic limestone and marl
Farming: Certified organic & biodynamic; hand-harvested
Alcohol: 13.0%
Fermentation: Native yeasts; mix of large foudres & neutral barrels with some tank; extended lees; minimal new oak

Tasting Note:
Pure, tensile Chardonnay: lemon oil, pear, and white peach layered with hazelnut, chalk, and a saline snap. Silky mid-palate from lees yet laser-clean, finishing long and mineral. Classy PF that swings from aperitif to roast chicken with ease.

About the Producer:
Lafon’s Mâconnais outpost proves great farming + restraint = crystalline Chardonnay. Biodynamics in the vines, native ferments, and patient lees aging yield wines of texture and limestone precision without excess oak.
