2020 Domaine Michel Lafarge - Rare Large Format Bottles (Copy)

 
It’s a magical wine in the making.
— William Kelley

There are rare bottles… and then there are SUPER Rare bottles. Today's offer falls into the latter. It's hard enough these days to come up with regular sized bottles of the very best Burgundy wine, nevermind 3.0ltr bottles! In the 30 years I have been selling Burgundy, I don’t remember seeing Jeros from one of my favorite producers, Domaine Michel Lafarge. I don’t know what the production is on these, but guessing it is somewhere less than 10 bottles produced in any given vintage; a total of 10 Jeros for the world!

The press on these wines is nothing less than spectacular. These are some of the finest wines produced period, but add to that, in a truly spectacular vintage. These are trophy bottles in every sense of the word!

This domaine has been growing in popularity and this particular vintage showcases the house style with its signature depth, while also walking a fine line of focus and precision. I feel that it will pick up more richness and put on some weight as it ages but with a vintage like 2013, it's hard not to appreciate the energy and lift it currently displays.  

This is a first rate wine in every respect and well worth your attention.
