2020 Dominique Lafon Beaune Pinot Noir: A Masterpiece of Burgundy Craftsmanship
Savor the essence of Burgundy’s finest terroir with Dominique Lafon’s 2020 Beaune Pinot Noir—a wine crafted with meticulous care by one of France’s most revered winemakers. Renowned for his pioneering approach to biodynamic viticulture, Lafon combines tradition and innovation to create wines that embody elegance and depth.
Hailing from the Côte de Beaune region, this Pinot Noir showcases grapes sourced from upper hillside slopes prized for their mineral-rich character and vibrant tension. Farmed sustainably under biodynamic principles by Lafon’s dedicated team, each vineyard parcel is nurtured to highlight its unique expression of place. The result? A wine that balances ripe fruitiness with crisp acidity—a hallmark of Lafon’s meticulous cellar work, performed largely by his own hands.
Dominique Lafon’s legacy began in the 1980s when he took over Domaine des Comtes Lafon and transitioned vineyards from sharecropping to direct management. Today, his eponymous label reflects a return to his roots: small-batch production with an unwavering focus on quality. Though technically a négociant wine (crafted at Château de Bligny-Lès-Beaune), every detail—from grape selection to bottling—is overseen by Lafon himself, ensuring authenticity and precision.
This 2020 vintage delivers a velvety texture with notes of dark cherry, spice, and earthy undertones, complemented by a lingering mineral finish. At 14% alcohol, it strikes a harmonious balance between power and finesse. Perfect for cellaring or pairing with rich game dishes, this bottle is a testament to Burgundy’s finest craftsmanship.
