Claude Lafond
Claude Lafond 2022 Pinot Noir
Fresh red fruit leads with sour cherry, red currant and blackcurrant, followed by cracked pepper and a light woodland note. The palate is harmonious and supple, carried by smooth tannins and bright acidity. Lightly perfumed and gently spicy, it finishes clean and fresh, with an elegant mineral undertone.
Domaine Claude Lafond 2023 Nathalie Sauvignon Blanc
Fresh elderflower, gooseberry and lemon give the nose a bright, green-edged lift. Light-bodied and dry, the palate is crisp and mouthwatering, with lively citrus, gentle herbal notes and a clean mineral line. The finish is brisk and refreshing rather than showy, making this a natural aperitif and an easy match for chèvre or shellfish.
Domaine Claude Lafond 2023 La Raie Reuilly Blanc
Ripe gooseberry, lime and lemon zest lead the nose, with pear, fresh herbs and a classic flinty note underneath. The palate is crisp, dry and elegant, carrying vibrant citrus over a finely textured mineral core. Bright acidity keeps the shape precise, while a cool, refreshing finish makes it especially good with oysters, goat cheese or simply as an aperitif.
Claude Lafond 2023 Preambule Pinot Gris Rose
Vivid and aromatic, with a clean burst of fresh fruit and a bright, easy lift. The palate is lively and direct, keeping its fruit clear and refreshing rather than sweet or heavy. A polished, understated rosé with enough energy for the aperitif table and enough presence for grilled fish, summer salads, fresh cheeses or lightly seasoned vegetables.
Claude Lafond 2023 Gris Rose La Grande Piece
Pale and delicately salmon-hued, with fresh red berries, citrus and a subtle mineral lift. The palate is fine-boned and refreshing, balancing gentle roundness with lively acidity and a clean, persistent finish. Made entirely from Pinot Gris in Reuilly, it is a polished, understated rose rather than an overtly fruity one. Serve well chilled with grilled fish, charcuterie, summer salads or fresh goat cheese.
