Vintage Report
What beautiful wines Domaine Lafage makes! What many don't know is that this French winery also produces superb dessert wines. Lafage's selection includes three different dessert wines, offering a perfect pairing for every dessert. Domaine Lafage is located in the south of France, between the southern coast and the Pyrenees, near Perpignan. This magnificent winery, steeped in history, boasts 140 hectares of exquisite vineyards. Today, the sixth generation is at the helm. Jean-Marc Lafage and his wife Eliane have brought significant innovation to the business while preserving family traditions. They also work just as hard on the estate as anyone else. Jean-Marc is even the winemaker!
Dessert wine from Maury
This Lafage Maury is a red dessert wine. The old vineyards planted with Grenache Noir are found in the small village of Maury. Maury is a small wine region named after the small town of Maury in the south of Languedoc-Roussillon, at the foot of the Pyrenees. Winemaker Jean-Marc Lafage truly knows how to create a highly inspiring dessert wine while preserving the style of the Grenache grape. The grapes for this Lafage Maury are harvested very late in the season; yields are low, but the grapes that can be harvested are excellent. Harvesting is done entirely by hand, allowing for a strict selection of the fruit. The picked bunches are transported in small crates to the winery, where they are pressed.
The taste of this Lafage red dessert wine
As soon as we uncork this beautiful dessert wine, the magnificent aromas that make it so distinctive are already released. Once in the glass, we see an intense dark red color that makes our hearts beat faster. We give the dessert wine a good swirl. Now the aromas truly come to the fore. We noted aromas of ripe red fruit like strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. This translates into a full-bodied and concentrated dessert wine with a pleasant sweetness. The nuances of the ripe red fruit are delightfully reflected in the taste. Those looking to pair this Lafage Maury with a suitable dessert should consider desserts with chocolate, various cheeses, or friandises with coffee.
