Domaine Leflaive needs little introduction to wine lovers. It has been described as Burgundy’s greatest white wine domaine, and while this is a pretty strong claim, it is a justifiable one.
Leflaive has been bio-dynamic since 1997 and is currently managed by Anne-Claude Leflaive. Anne-Claude has the greatest respect for Burgundy tradition and takes as natural an approach as is possible. She is deeply concerned about the irreversible damage caused to Burgundy soil by fertilizers and pesticides, and so follows organic methods.
Bâtard-Montrachet's Grand Cru vineyards typically produce rich, concentrated Chardonnay with masses of fruit.
Reviews.."Big, rich and muscular yet this offers excellent definition with explosive fruit trimmed in obvious anise notes and luxuriant, sappy, dense flavors of uncommon depth and complexity. The finish is rather linear presently yet offers wave after wave of mouthwatering extract, all beautifully framed by more than sufficient buffering acidity. A Bâtard worthy of the name and a great success for the vintage." Burghound.com |
