Domaine Michel Lafarge Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Aigrots Rouge 2022
Michel Lafarge's portfolio extends beyond his Volnay heartland into neighboring Beaune, where this Premier Cru parcel yields wines of textural sophistication. The 2022 red version shows leather-tinged aromas and a fleshy mouthfeel that speaks to ripeness tempered by Côte de Beaune minerality. Aged in neutral wood to preserve the fruit's elegance, this is a wine built for near-term pleasure yet structured enough to develop over five to eight years. Pair it with roasted duck or mushroom-led dishes.
