History of the Estate

The Domaine des Héritiers du Comte Lafon, located in the Mâconnais in Burgundy, was purchased in 1999 by Dominique Lafon, from the renowned Domaine des Comtes Lafon in Meursault. Its history dates back to the late 19th century with the marriage of Jules Joseph Barthélémy Lafon and Marie Boch, a proprietor-négociant in Meursault. Since then, the estate has been passed down from generation to generation, until Dominique Lafon decided to acquire the Mâconnais estate in 1999, subsequently renaming it to its current name. Since 2006, Caroline Gon, and now Elsie Moore, have taken charge of managing the vineyard, ensuring the maintenance and improvement of the quality of the wines produced. Approximately 150,000 bottles are produced each year, of impeccable quality!

Terroir, Vineyards and Vinification

The estate extends over 26 hectares distributed across different areas of the Mâconnais, including Milly-Lamartine, Bussières, Clos du Four and Viré-Clessé. The vines have been cultivated according to organic and biodynamic farming principles since 2003. The vinifications are traditional and parcel-based, with minimal intervention, and the wines are aged in demi-muids and foudres. This respect for the terroir and natural cultivation methods allows the production of taut, incisive, straight, crystalline, sapid and refined wines, appreciated for their great aging potential.

Main Cuvées and Appellations

Caroline Gon produces wines of consistent, and even increasing quality! Very beautiful balance, fruit maturity and minerality typical of the terroirs, integrated and discreet aging, as well as enjoyable tasting from the wines' youngest age but also strong aging potential! 

Among the estate's flagship cuvées, we find:

Mâcon Milly-Lamartine: A lively and lemony white, ideal for accompanying fish and seafood.

Mâcon Clos de la Crochette: A wine with a pale robe, with aromas of citrus, butter and flowers, with good acidity and beautiful length on the palate.

Mâcon Uchizy Les Maranches: A fruity and floral wine, with beautiful amplitude on the palate, richness and subtle minerality.

Mâcon Bussières – Le Monsard: A fruity cuvée with aromas of white-fleshed fruits and flowers, structured around an acidic framework, with a persistent finish.

Viré-Clessé: A wine with a straw yellow robe, with aromas of exotic fruits and flowers, balanced between roundness and mineral acidity, with a fresh and lively finish.

Pouilly-Fuissé: A mineral wine, marked by chalky and saline notes, endowed with strong aging potential.

The Domaine des Héritiers du Comte Lafon is praised by wine critics, with constant progression towards excellence. It represents one of the most reliable values of the Mâconnais, offering wines of remarkable quality and great expressiveness.
