Meursault domaine founded 1869, farmed biodynamically under Dominique Lafon since the early 1990s with full conversion by 1998, holding parcels in Meursault premier crus Perrieres, Genevrieres, Charmes and Goutte d'Or alongside a sliver of Le Montrachet.
Tasting: No general cellar door; sold on allocation. The family also runs Heritiers du Comte Lafon in the Maconnais.
Cult Meursault domaine under Raphael Coche, famed for flinty, reductive Meursault and a tiny production of Corton-Charlemagne grand cru.
Tasting: No public tastings; among the most allocation-tight and collected whites in Meursault.
The closing day of the Trois Glorieuses, a bring-your-own-bottle harvest banquet at the Chateau de Meursault on the Monday after the Hospices auction. Growers pour rare older white Burgundy from their own cellars across a long afternoon lunch.
Tip: Seats are coveted and largely allocated to the trade and Meursault families; mirror the spirit by booking a Meursault domaine lunch the same week if you cannot get a Paulee place.
