Dominique Lafon, the celebrated Meursault winemaker, saw the Maconnais' potential long before others and founded Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon in 1999 to prove it. The domaine farms biodynamically across the southern Maconnais, and these Chardonnays show what the region can really do at honest prices. Milly-Lamartine is the historic heart of the estate, the original parcels Lafon began with. Expect a rounder, more open-knit Macon with the freshness and class that Lafon brings to everything. Drink over the next few years.

"The 2024 Mâcon-Milly-Lamartine was picked at the end of the harvest. It offers apple blossom and pear scents mixed with light granitic notes. The palate is nicely balanced with lemon and lime notes, a lilting Mâconnais wine with decent length on the finish." —Neal Martin

More about Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon

Roulot’s Meursault, Leflaive’s Puligny: for generations wine lovers have obsessed over the nuances of the Cote d'Or different vineyards and villages. And for the last few years, the same has been true of Champagne. We think the Macon is next.

Why the Macon? Mostly because, as We've said before, it’s a region of exciting and diverse terroir. Although that wasn't clear back when production was dominated by large industrial concerns, now that some of the greatest white wine growers in the world are working there, everybody is catching on. It doesn't hurt that the wines are much more approach-ably priced.

No one has done more to put the spotlight on the Maconnais than the great Dominique Lafon. He established the domaine in 1999, and converted all of the vineyards to biodynamics over the next few years. Since 2006 his longtime apprentice Caroline Gon has been the head winemaker. She now has over a dozen vintages under her belt and the wines are better than ever.
