About. Famille Bruno Lafon is based in Magalas, a small village in the Pézenas sector of the Languedoc, where Bruno Lafon established himself after leaving Burgundy in the late 1990s. Though his family name is tied to Domaine des Comtes Lafon in Meursaul, one of the most renowned estates in Burgundy, Bruno chose a different path. He arrived in Languedoc in 1999, drawn by its Mediterranean climate, wealth of grape varieties, and untapped potential. His first wines from the region were released in 2003, and in 2009, alongside Sylvie Legros, he founded Domaine Magellan, which remains the cornerstone of his southern French work.
