Les Héritiers du Comte Lafon
Mâcon-Chardonnay, Clos de la Crochette, 2024
justerini & brooks tasting note
A cool yet generous wine, where freshness pervades the nose, a touch of mint as well as white fruit and citrus. Clear eyed and precise with orchard fruits and a crisp stoniness, this is one of the racier wines in the lineup, reflecting its origins in the Northern Maconnais, near to Uchizy. The wine is aged half in large oak foudres and half in oak demi-muid barrels.

90/100Neal Martin,Vinous
The 2024 Mâcon-Chardonnay Clos de la Crochette has a touch of menthol on the nose that gives the aromatics lift and charm. The palate has good weight, lightly spiced with touches of Clementine and grapefruit and a touch of lemongrass that enlivens the finish. Within touching distance of the 2023.
