Product Description
JS97 "Ripe-pear and intensely flinty aromas mingle in the nose of this youthful white Burgundy. Powerful tannin structure on the sleek and very focused palate with delicate candied orange on the creamy mid-palate. Then radical minerality bursts out at the very concentrated and long finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2023." JS Jul 2021
DR97 "Bienvenues is generally less powerful than Bâtard at Leflaive, and that's certainly the case here. But what this impressive grand cru lacks in terms of weight, it more than makes up for with precision. Tangerine and pink grapefruit flavours segue into a fresh, textured finish embellished by oak."
