This Beaune 1er Cru 2018 from Domaine Michel Lafarge, Pinot Noir on clay-limestone soils, is aged in barrels. Notes of red berries, spices and flowers, with a mineral and fresh palate. Perfect with poultry or game after a few years of cellaring.
A family estate rooted in Volnay, where the Burgundian heritage has been passed down for two centuries with exacting standards and respect for the terroir.
- Terroir: Red clay and limestone soils in the Côte de Beaune, where Pinot Noir expresses finesse and minerality.
- Winemaking: Traditional methods, measured oak barrel aging, for wines of remarkable purity and tension.
Tasting notes for Domaine Michel Lafarge Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Aigrots 2018
To the eye: Deep ruby robe with garnet reflections, of a silky and luminous texture.
On the nose: Aromas of Morello cherry and fresh raspberry, followed by a hint of peony and a touch of liquorice, all underscored by a chalky minerality.
On the palate: An elegant and taut attack, where lively acidity and salinity blend with fine tannins, leading to a long, linear finish carried by a persistent freshness.
Serve at 14-16°C in a Burgundy glass to reveal its full complexity.
