Tasting Notes
Leflaive never disappoints. The Macon-Verze is fermented and aged in mostly stainless steel. There's great purity and energy to these wines as well as the typical Burgundian touch of flinty minerality. A pleasure to drink now and over the next 10 years. - Chris L
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.
