In 1990, Olivier Leflaive (who talked to wine-searcher in 2013 about one of his favourite wines) was given the reins of the Domaine Leflaive estate, alongside his cousin Anne-Claude Leflaive. He left in 1994 to set up his own negociant business. Today, Olivier Leflaive (which is based in Puligny-Montrachet) has 17 hectares (42 acres) of estate vines, as well as approximately 100 hectares (247 acres) of growers' vines. These are spread across the Côte de Beaune, Côte Châlonnaise, and Chablis, although the most important holdings are in Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet. Olivier Leflaive produces wines from several Grand Cru vineyards, including Le Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne and Bâtard-Montrachet, and several notable premier cru vineyards, such as Meursault Charmes and Puligny-Montrachet's Les Pucelles. After harvest, the grapes are softly pressed and allowed to settle before fermentation, which takes place in both vats and oak barrel. The wines go through malolactic fermentation and are lees-stirred in oak barrels during aging. The proportion of new oak is dependent on the wine. Along with its top wines made from Chardonnay, Olivier Leflaive makes a few village-level red wines from Pinot Noir, and a white wine from Aligoté. All Olivier Leflaive bottles are topped with their signature yellow foil.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-01-05T10:29:29-05:00","created_at":"2023-12-27T08:49:40-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Nika2212","Other_Wine","Producer_Olivier Leflaive","Region_Burgundy","Source_WineOnlineDelivery1223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Pinot Noir"],"price":24999,"price_min":24999,"price_max":24999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44123021246602,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Olivier Leflaive | Santenay","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":24999,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/80_6c9b4421-d8c5-4749-af02-58b85fc686b2.jpg?v=1703685014"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/80_6c9b4421-d8c5-4749-af02-58b85fc686b2.jpg?v=1703685014","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Olivier Leflaive | Santenay at CaskCartel.com","id":25766122946698,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.305,"height":400,"width":122,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/80_6c9b4421-d8c5-4749-af02-58b85fc686b2.jpg?v=1703685014"},"aspect_ratio":0.305,"height":400,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/80_6c9b4421-d8c5-4749-af02-58b85fc686b2.jpg?v=1703685014","width":122}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Olivier Leflaive | Santenay\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSantenay Olivier Leflaive shows an earthy but fresh nose which evolves into fruity glimpses on the palate.
