Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Volnay 1er Cru Champans, 2022
Champans has been Volnay's flagship Premier Cru since wine historians started keeping score. This 2022 from Lafon emerges brooding and dark—ripe black cherries, forest floor, minerality—with the structured elegance Champans demands. The vineyard's mixed-age vines (planted 1922 and 1989) and complex soils create complexity that unfolds over years. This is young Burgundy at its most promising: already poised, built for the cellar.
