Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon Macon Vire-Clesse 2023

Dominique Lafon's biodynamic Mâconnais domaine channels the energy of clay-limestone terrain through this vibrant Chardonnay fermented in large oak foudres. The 2023 vintage shows a lively bouquet with yellow stone fruits and hints of beeswax—a textbook expression that reveals more richness than Lafon's lighter bottlings without sacrificing purity. Head winemaker Caroline Gon has been defining this estate's profile for over a dozen years, capturing mineral tension alongside fruit generosity.
