Historically, it is on white wines that Domaine des Comtes Lafon has built its legend. Created by Jules Lafon at the end of the 19th century, it was originally located in Meursault; The family subsequently acquired a few plots of Montrachet, as well as three of the best premier crus of Volnay. René Lafon, grandson of Jules, began bottling at the estate in 1961. The current owner, Dominique Lafon, son of René (and great-grandson of Jules), is today one of the standard bearers of Burgundian excellence, with a reputation that goes far beyond our borders due to his unrivaled talents as a winemaker. The estate's white wines are characterized by their smoothness and exceptional richness in extract.
Viticulture, which has long tended to preserve the environment, has been officially certified "organic" since 1998, coupled with the essential principles of biodynamics. A legendary domain!

The name "Désiré" comes from a cadastral location that was abolished in 1973. Since the Counts of Lafon had been using it for much longer, the estate is authorized to continue labeling its wine as such. This is a superb Meursault, the most accessible in the range. It doesn't need to be aged for ten years like the estate's other wines; it immediately seduces with its beautiful, soft, and balanced body.
