2018 | Domaine Leflaive | Puligny-Montrachet

Fresh, evoking lemon, apple and baking spice aromas and flavors. Balanced and on the sleek, racy side, with good cut driving lemon and hazelnut notes on the finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Aromas of citrus oil, crisp green apple, Anjou pear, dried white flowers and wheat toast introduce the 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Village, a medium to full-bodied, lively and precise wine that's elegantly textural, fine-boned and penetrating. It possesses excellent potential.

• Burghound: A ripe, cool and pure nose possesses a lovely array of pear, white peach and subtle acacia wisps that are trimmed in just enough wood to notice. There is both good volume and richness to the utterly delicious and seductively textured flavors that manage to possess a beguiling refinement on the clean and dry finish that offers very good persistence and especially so for a villages level wine.

Producer Information

The roots of the Leflaive family go back to 1717 when Claude Leflaive took up residence in Puligny-Montrachet, intent upon cultivating several acres of vineyards. The domaine, in its present form, was created by Joseph Leflaive between the years of 1910-1930, as a result of his successive purchases of vineyards and houses. Domaine Leflaive has been entirely a family domaine since its creation. Brice de La Morandière, great-grandson of the founder, Joseph Leflaive, represents the fourth generation at the head of the domaine. In 2015, after an international corporate career, he succeeded Anne-Claude, pioneer in biodynamics. It is with the same philosophy of respect for the great terroirs, humility toward the forces of nature and relentless pursuit of excellence in viticulture and in winemaking that the domaine will continue to grow in the future.
