Using 50% whole clusters for the first time in 2022, the wine balances suave, fleshy fruit with excellent mid-palate density and integrated spice. Biodynamic farming and certified organic agriculture underscore this domaine's commitment to expression through purity and freshness. In magnum for optimal aging.

"The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Herbues comes from vines planted in 1964 that Faure has worked since 2011. It has a vivacious bouquet with brambly red fruit, briar and light sous-bois scents. Again, this has fine delineation and the stems are neatly integrated. The palate is well balanced with a dash of black pepper, coming across as quite structured with a little more weight on the finish compared to the previous vintage." —Neal Martin

More about Domaine des Comtes Lafon

I remember tasting with Dominique Lafon about 30 years ago in the very cold cellars below Clos de la Barre. We had the reds first, which is Burgundian tradition. Dominique commented that he was having a great time making the red wines and that he thought his reds were getting really good. I had to agree.

He has now retired from Domaine des Comtes Lafon. Lea is the winemaker and Pierre is running the business. Which means Dominique will undoubtedly be spending more time on his wholly owned negociant project. I look forward to drinking the Volnay 1er Cru les Lurets on New Year's Eve 2030!

The négociant wines have taken a big step up with the stunning 2022 and 2023 vintages. The future is looking bright chez Lafon.
