What is this wine?
Domaine Michel Lafarge Meursault 2022 is a rare and refined white Burgundy from one of the Côte de Beaune’s most revered traditional estates. The Lafarge family, based in Volnay since the early 19th century, farms all of its vineyards biodynamically and vinifies with a light touch to preserve purity and terroir. The fruit for this cuvée comes from old-vine parcels in Meursault on limestone and marl soils, hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts before aging in mostly neutral French oak barrels for about 12 months.

Why get this wine?
While best known for their Volnay reds, the Lafarge family’s whites are among Burgundy’s hidden gems — wines of understated elegance, minerality, and depth. The 2022 vintage offers ripe, golden fruit balanced by bright acidity and Lafarge’s hallmark restraint. This Meursault beautifully bridges richness and tension, offering the clarity and finesse that distinguish the domaine’s meticulous craftsmanship.

What does this wine taste like?
Elegant and finely textured, with notes of pear, lemon zest, almond, and white flowers. The palate is focused and mineral, with subtle hazelnut richness and a long, saline finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Drink 2025–2036. Serve slightly cool (around 55°F). Excellent with roasted poultry, seared scallops, or creamy vegetable dishes. A brief decant enhances complexity.

Lafarge is one of the great names in Volnay, some would say the greatest. His wines are sought out the world over, and we are always excited when our allocation arrives.

Lafarge’s home territory is Volnay, though he also has holdings in nearby Beaune and Meursault. This is an old estate that started bottling their wines in the early 1900s. Only Armand Rousseau, the DRC, and maybe two or three other growers have that kind of history.

The wines of Lafarge are magical. Despite being made in a decidedly old-school style—really no different than a generation or even two ago—they display incredible purity and not a hint of rusticity. It is the same kind of magic that Jacky Truchot was able to conjure. We only wish we could get more.
