Our ReviewCustomer Reviews

Maconnais, Burgundy, France

Dominique Lafon is an undisputed Burgundy superstar. His exemplary portfolio of Meursault premiers crus and Le Montrachet grand cru is among the most eagerly sought-after white Burgundies worldwide. In the Mâcon, Lafon fashions superb limestone-infused Chardonnays with the same attention and care he affords his prestigious Meursaults. The 2020 Mâcon-Villages reflects a pale gold hue from the glass followed by smoky, soil-driven aromas of lemon pith, toasted hazelnuts, limestone minerals, and barrel smoke. Fleshy yet incisive on the palate, the freshness of the fine 2020 white Burgundy vintage reveals a tensile, coiled kernel of crisp apple and Mirabelle plum fruit. Aged primarily in old foudres, Lafon’s Mâcon-Villages shows impeccable balance and a sappy texture. The wine finishes with floral limestone minerality propelling reprises of lemon juice, apple blossoms, soft orchard fruits, and smoky barrel tones. This is a sensational Mâcon – perhaps Dominque’s finest Mâcon-Villages bottling to date – that can be enjoyed now and over the coming seven years. Give this wine a gentle decanting and pair with broiled salmon, mushrooms in a cream sauce, roast pork tenderloin, boudin blanc, and other mild sausages. Only ten cases available.
