Created in Bordeaux in 1895, LAFFORT has played a fundamental role in the developments in Œnology that followed Louis Pasteur and his initial Œnological discoveries. LAFFORT 's scientific developments have allowed the company to progress from a curative form of Œnology, based essentially on pure chemistry, to a preventative form, founded on biotechnologies.

LAFFORT has excelled through its high level of dedication to both applied and fundamental research. Embracing the future, the company has demonstrated the pertinence of its research via renowned product performance and quality. LAFFORT research is the origin of a large number of discoveries in modern Œnology, affirmed by numerous international patent applications. This energy and total commitment to R&D underpin the company's international Œnological presence.

LAFFORT is also characterised by its control over production methodologies, allowing it to implement Œnologically-specific hi-tech facilities and production know-how.
