Dominique Lafon, famous for some of Burgundy’s most coveted whites, brought his talents south to the Mconnais and the region has never looked back. This bottling comes from the Clos de la Crochette in the village of Chardonnay itself, the place that may well have given the grape its name. Farmed biodynamically and aged in large wood, it’s a precise, energetic white that delivers serious Burgundian character without the Cte d’Or price tag. A textbook example of why the Mcon is having a moment.
