Tasting Notes
From 45+ year old vines, which are the oldest of the Domaine.
Domaine Leflaive is arguably the most established Domaine in Puligny Montrachet. An estate that has been in the Leflaive family since 1717.
Until 2015 the estate was under the control of Anne Claude Leflaive who sadly passed away in 2015. Anne Claude’s stewardship of the domaine from the early 90’s reinvigorated the entire estate and put Domaine Leflaive on the map as a pioneer of biodynamic farming in Burgundy.
Today, the Domaine is under the control of Brice de la Morandiere, with the winemaking overseen by Eric Remy, who took over from Pierre Morey in 2008. The wines are classic in their outlook, aged for 12 months - typically in 25% new oak and then transferred to tank for settling over the winter. The pinnacle of white Burgundy: superb, refined, deep and elegant.
