This is a stunning set of wines from Michel Lafarge. The estate farms biodynamically. In 2009 Lafarge began harvesting on September 9. The wines were left on their gross lees through the malos, which ended in April-May. Lafarge did one racking, in August, 2010, when he moved the wine off their gross lees, leaving just the fine lees. I tasted The 2009s from barrel. Lafarge planned to bottle later in Spring 2011 with no fining or filtration, as is his usual custom.
