and it rests three years in large oak casks before release

sophisticated

with a splash of Chardonnay and a generous dose of still red wine blended in for color and grip

and a saline structure anchored by substantial mineral depth

Domaine Michel Lafarge Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Aigrots Blanc 2022 SPDESSERT Lirac shares the same sun-bakedA singular quarter hectare parcel at the top of the Clos des Aigrots hill yields this refined Chardonnay, one of only four producers permitted to use the "Clos" designation here. Aromas of minty pear, white flowers, and almonds introduce a medium bodied wine pressed whole cluster and aged 15 months in 0 10% new barrels. The light colored clay and limestone soil creates a wine of ample structure and tangy precision.
