DOMAINE MICHEL LAFARGE 2023: BIODYNAMIC VOLNAY AND MEURSAULT
The village of Volnay would not be where it is today without the work of the Lafarge family. They have been in Volnay since the early 1900s and own some of the most coveted plots of vines. Since 2000 the domain has been certified in biodynamics, and the work in the cellar is extremely gentle and traditional. The wines are honest and feel untouched by time. These bottles reward those with patience.
NEW ARRIVALS: Le Grappin, Domaine de Chassorney and Salima & Alain Cordeuil
We are very lucky to be able to offer some very special wines from three domains that are truly at the forefront of the new wave of French wine: Le Grappin, Domaine de Chassorney and Salima & Alain Cordeuil.
Le Grappin and Domaine de Chassorney are two producers based in the Côte de Beaune, while Salima & Alain Cordeuil are in the Côte des Bar of Champagne. They all make amazingly transparent expressions of sites that are often considered under the radar. The philosophies of these domains are very much in line with the natural wine movement. That means additions are minimal, if any, which allows the wines to have an energy that is completely unique. These wines are allocated in Oregon and we were lucky enough to get our hands on a few bottles.
