Les Heritiers du Comte Lafon Macon Clos Crochette 2023 (1.5L)
This 1.5L format showcases another single-vineyard gem from the Lafon estate's biodynamic holdings in the Mâconnais. The Clos de la Crochette is a clay-limestone parcel where 25-year-old vines produce Chardonnay of focused minerality—crushed stone, sea cave, and Granny Smith notes dominate the nose. The palate is crisp and well-balanced with fine weight and density, though the wine's backward nature suggests it will reward a couple of years of cellaring. A wine of precision and terroir.
