NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This white Burgundy from Domaine Michel Lafarge is a marvel.On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of honey, pineapple, and lemon zest. On the palate, it is full bodied and rich, with notes of ripe pear, honeycomb, and white peach. The finish is dry and mineral-driven with a long and persistent length. An elegant and balanced wine that will age gracefully for years to come.
