Beaune 1er Cru Clos Des Aigrots Blanc Domaine Lafarge, 2022

Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Aigrots Blanc from Domaine Lafarge is a refined white Burgundy that highlights one of the appellation’s most characterful premier cru sites. The 2022 vintage brings together precision, freshness, and quiet depth in a style that feels both classic and beautifully alive.

Tasting Notes
Pale gold in the glass, it typically shows a bright, elegant profile with lifted citrus, white stone fruit, and subtle floral notes, often supported by a hint of toast, almond, or wet stone complexity. On the palate, expect a focused, mineral-driven wine with fine texture, vibrant acidity, and a long, nuanced finish that should continue to gain richness and complexity with age. While already appealing in its youth, this is a white Burgundy with clear aging potential. Over time, it is likely to develop more pronounced honeyed, nutty, and savory layers while preserving the site’s tension and finesse.

Clos des Aigrots is a premier cru vineyard in Beaune, where well-situated limestone and clay soils contribute to the wine’s balance of freshness, structure, and minerality.
