Focusing almost entirely on white wines made from Chardonnay, the Domaine makes four grand cru wines and four premier crus in Puligny-Montrachet. The Domaine was founded by Joseph Leflaive, a former engineer. In 1905, he purchased vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet which had been ravaged by phylloxera, and set about replanting and expanding them. Upon his death in 1953, his sons Vincent and Jo took over the running of the estate, and are widely credited with building up the reputation that Leflaive enjoys today. In 1990, cousins Anne Claude and Olivier Leflaive took over the running of the estate, with Olivier leaving in 1994 to run his own negociant business. Anne Claude converted the vineyards to biodynamics and is considered a pioneer of that movement in Burgundy. After her death in 2015, her nephew Brice de la Morandiere has taken over the running of Domaine Leflaive. Domaine Leflaive's most important wine is arguably the Montrachet Grand Cru, which, depending on vintage, can fetch upwards of $5000 a bottle. The domaine also has land in Chevalier-Montrachet, Batard-Montrachet, and Bienvenues-Batard-Montrachet, and makes a grand cru wine from each. Additional to this, there are several premier cru wines, the most important of which is probably the Les Clavoillon, which was one of the wines included in the 1976 Judgment of Paris. Domaine Leflaive also makes a sole red wine from Pinot Noir under the Blagny Sous le Dos d'Ane Premier Cru title.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-09-08T13:55:51-04:00","created_at":"2023-09-01T11:14:17-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK3108","Other_Wine","Producer_Domaine Leflaive","Region_Burgundy","Source_Hedonism0823","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Chardonnay"],"price":149300,"price_min":149300,"price_max":149300,"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":43519749128330,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1999 | Domaine Leflaive | Les Pucelles (Half Bottle)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":149300,"weight":12247,"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\/6_c3472dc5-3317-4547-b100-4f24f0897863.png?v=1693581391"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_c3472dc5-3317-4547-b100-4f24f0897863.png?v=1693581391","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1999 | Domaine Leflaive | Les Pucelles (Half Bottle) at CaskCartel.com","id":25046911385738,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":640,"width":640,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_c3472dc5-3317-4547-b100-4f24f0897863.png?v=1693581391"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":640,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/6_c3472dc5-3317-4547-b100-4f24f0897863.png?v=1693581391","width":640}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 1999 | Domaine Leflaive | Les Pucelles (Half Bottle)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, the layers of citrus and apple fruit gradually unfold, accompanied by delightful nuances of crème brûlée, toasty notes, intense minerality, and subtle floral hints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Domaine Leflaive\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1999\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 375ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Chardonnay\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Burgundy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, the layers of citrus and apple fruit gradually unfold, accompanied by delightful nuances of crème brûlée, toasty notes, intense minerality, and subtle floral hints.
