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.
During the 1970s and ‘80s the area was most famous for producing ‘white Burgundy’ in bulk at unsustainably low prices. However, when Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon was established in 1999 by Dominique Lafon, the area completely changed and began to value hands-on work in the vineyards and making wine with a deeper understanding and respect for the terroir.
Dominique’s daughter Léa and nephew Pierre are the new faces of the domaine, and we are incredibly happy to be working with such an amazing family who are creating a change for the better.

Chiara comes from a family of winemakers, so the urge to produce wines runs in her blood. Her first vintage was in 2015, and she now owns 7 hectares in Emilia-Romagna (the Romagna side) where she makes two different and absolutely amazing wines on Sangiovese.
Orginally from Cadiz, her love for the Mencía grape brought her to Bierzo in Galicia, Spain. Since then, Veronica has quickly become a reference winemaker in the region as she balances between the classic and natural expression of Bierzo. Veronica has worked in several places throughout Europe before settling in Valtuille de Abajo in 2012. here, she worked alongside Raúl Pérez in his winery where she made her first couple vintages until moving into her own winery.
René Rostaing founded the now legendary Domaine Rostaing back in 1971 during a period where most of the world had forgotten about the wavy hills of Côte-Rôtie in the northern part of the Rhône Valley. He started out with just under 1 hectare of vineyards, split between the Côte Blonde and La Landonne.
