domaine leflaive puligny montrachet 2016
Reference: 1029Stock: 1 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
"the name of the leflaive estate will long be associated with its famous ambassador anne-claude who, with the energy of a pioneer, converted the estate to biodynamics between 1993 and 1997. the leflaive family has lived in puligny since 1717. but it took the genius of a maritime engineer, a polytechnician, to revive a domain devastated by phylloxera. the particular attention paid to the vineyard and to the wine making allows the wines, particularly rich, to reveal all the subtleties of the different burgundian soils. montrachet, bâtard, chevalier, bienvenues-bâtard and the first growths folatières or pucelles are wines with fundamentally different identities. the leflaive estate blends no less than seven parcels of the commune to produce this puligny-montrachet vintage. (only modest crop losses to frost and mildew): tight nose offers scents of mirabelle, grapefruit and anise. this, too, conveys an impression of creaminess, but is more concentrated than the bourgogne blanc in spite of the closer-to-normal vine yields here. finishes with a firm edge that calls for a year or two of patience."
