Domaine des Comtes Lafon,
For laying down,
The 2012 Monthelie Les Duresses Village comes from a 0.15-hectare parcel of vines planted in 1996. Picked on 8 and 9 October, it has a pretty innocent nose with raspberry preserve and crushed strawberry. The palate is crisp and fresh with light tannins but plenty of jammy fruit on the finish. Fine.
