Michel Lafarge

The Domaine Michel Lafarge founded in the 19th century in Volnay, on the Côte de Beaune. In 1934, Henri Lafarge was the first that bottled wines at the estate. Before they were just selling grapes to local wine merchants. Michel Lafarge, joined his father in 1949 and then Henri’s grandson Frédéric Lafarge followed, who is now at the head of the family estate. The property, which spans 12 hectares of vineyards, including 2.5 hectares of white grapes, is managed using biodynamic practices certified by Demeter and is part of the Renaissance des Appellations group.

“In the vineyards, the classic grape varieties of the Côte de Beaune, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, benefit from clay-limestone soils.”

Crafted and vinified without artifice, the wines of the domaine are consistent, precise, and aromatic. They are traditional wines demonstrating extreme consistency in faithfully expressing their Burgundian terroirs. Reflecting the desire to let nature take its course, the wines of the Lafarge Family fully reveal themselves if given time: true wines for ageing for authentic Burgundies! The range of wines from Domaine Michel Lafarge is relatively extensive, featuring different appellations from the Côte de Beaune: Volnay and Volnay 1er Crus, Bourgogne and Beaune 1er Crus for reds made from Pinot Noir, Meursault and Beaune 1er Cru for whites made from Chardonnay. The wines of Domaine Michel Lafarge are authentically timeless.
