Product Description
VM95 "The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 1er Cru has a concentrated nose delineated by hints of pressed white flowers, Vervain tea and crushed stone, with just a bit of reduction. These aromatics are backward at this stage, but they show great potential. The palate is quite sharp on the entry, with a twist of sour lemon that counterbalances the concentrated, slightly honeyed fruit. There is a pleasant build in the mouth, and it unveils hidden salinity and spiciness toward the finish. The longer you remain in its presence, the more it gives you. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting." NM for VM Dec 2021
DR95 "Thrilling wine. Leflaive owns three parcels in Les Pucelles at the northern tip of Bâtard-Montrachet and Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet at the center of the vineyard. The mature vines deliver a perfumed, almost exotic fruit character with notes of spice and hazelnut. Still, there is also a bright lemony freshness to the wine and a lovely salty mineral finish that lift it to another plane and will allow it to continue improving for decades. The most compelling of the premiers crus from Leflaive." CC for DR May 2021
