Domaine Michel Lafarge, Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets, 2023
Les Caillerets is the high-slope jewel of Volnay — stony, austere soils that demand the most from the vine and reward it with the most structured, age-worthy wine in the commune. Lafarge's version is the standard-bearer: firm, mineral, and built for the cellar, yet unmistakably Lafarge in its elegance and restraint. Biodynamic farming and long élevage in old oak give the wine a precision that sets it apart from richer, more opulent styles. The 2023 vintage adds a freshness that makes the structure feel vibrant rather than severe.
