Beaune 1er Cru Clos Des Aigrots Blanc Domaine Lafarge, 2021

Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Aigrots Blanc 2021 from Domaine Lafarge is a refined expression of Burgundian Chardonnay, combining precision, energy, and quiet depth. Sourced from one of Beaune’s respected Premier Cru sites, it offers the kind of site-driven character and pedigree that serious white Burgundy lovers look for.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a pale gold hue with a luminous, finely etched appearance. The nose is elegant and restrained, with notes of white flowers, citrus peel, green apple, and subtle mineral complexity, often unfolding with hints of hazelnut and a touch of creamy lees influence. On the palate, the wine is focused and layered, balancing ripe orchard fruit with vibrant acidity and a cool, chalky minerality. The texture is supple but precise, with a long, lingering finish that suggests good development potential. While already approachable in its youth, it should gain added breadth and nuance with several years of cellaring.

Production

Food & Serving
