Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon
While the legendary Domaine Comtes Lafon often steals the spotlight, the Lafon family has been doing exceptional work in the under-appreciated region of Mâconnais in the southern part of Burgundy for more than 20 years.
Location: France
Fabrice studied enology in Beaune before fine tuning his skills as a winemaker at the Cooperative of Pupillin. He started working at Domaine de Saint Pierre in 1989 as a manager and took full control in 2011. The Domaine achieved organic certification in 2012, having started conversion in 2002. In recent years, due to lesser crops in Jura caused by spring frosts, Fabrice has expanded his horizons to include purchasing grapes from friends both in the Jura and from other regions; the project is called Le Dos d’Chat and is a series of easier wines made by that show a light touch with good sense of wine-making. All wines, both domaine and negoce are fermented with native yeasts either in tank or neutral barriques.

The Cantalapiedra family has made wine from several generations in the municipality of La Seca, half an hour southwest of Valladolid in Castilla y Leon; heart of the Rueda appellation. There are records of the Cantalapiedras’ grape-growing dating to the 19th century, but the current version of the domaine can be traced directly to the year 1949, when the grandfather, Heliodoro, planted his first vineyard plot at young age of 15
Talloulah and Hugo Mathurin are a couple of young and wildly talented people who make wine in Les Maranges, a more discreet area of Burgundy which is located slightly east from the daunting slopes of Chassagne- and Puligny-Montrachet.
