Founded in 1999 by Dominique Lafon, Héritiers du Comte Lafon is his biodynamic Mâconnais domaine. His 2020 Pouilly-Fuissé en Chatenay is a beautifully rich yet balanced wine, offering vibrant notes of lemon, mandarin, stone fruits, and freshly baked bread. Its mineral backbone, a hallmark of the Mâcon’s limestone-rich soils, shines through. The texture is soft and mouth-coating, while the long, mineral-driven finish, with hints of sea salt, is framed by bright, lively acidity that adds freshness and precision.
