Description of Monthélie 1er Cru Les Duresses

Estate

Domaine des Comtes Lafon is a renowned Burgundy estate, celebrated for its exceptional expertise in crafting premium wines. Covering a total area of 6 hectares 72 ares 34 centiares, this estate is a benchmark for Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune enthusiasts.

Vineyard

The vineyard is located in the commune of Monthélie, a valued appellation within the Côte de Beaune. It benefits from calcareous clay soils and a favorable exposure, ideal conditions for cultivating Pinot Noir, the sole grape variety of this Premier Cru.

Wine

This Monthélie 1er Cru 2023 is a red wine made exclusively from Pinot Noir. The vintage is marked by aromatic precision and elegance that reflect the terroir’s finesse. The estate’s organic farming approach ensures an authentic and environmentally respectful expression of the wine.

Vintage

The 2023 vintage offers a delicate balance between freshness and ripeness, with an alcohol content of 13%, supporting the structure and finesse typical of great Burgundy Pinot Noirs. This vintage has been positively noted in local reviews.

Vinification & Aging

The vinification is meticulous, favoring controlled extraction to preserve the fine tannins. Aging is done in oak barrels, some of which are new, providing complexity and elegance without overpowering the wine's fruity aromas.

Grape Variety

Pinot Noir

Characteristics & Tasting

Tasting

  • Appearance: Clear bright ruby red color.
  • Nose: Aromas of fresh red berries, cherry, raspberry, with subtle notes of sweet spices and moist earth.
  • Palate: Soft and elegant attack, fine silky tannins, good tension accompanied by a lively acidity balancing the structure. Persistent finish with a slight mineral touch.

Serving

Serve at 59°F (15°C). A light decanting for about an hour is recommended for young wines to open up the aromas.

Food Pairings

Aged rib of beef, herb-crusted rack of lamb, well-aged Époisses cheese, and woodland mushroom ravioli.

Occasions

Important business meals, wedding anniversaries, refined dinners with friends.

Aging Potential

Can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity over the next 10-15 years. Optimal drinking window between 2028 and 2035.
