The great Domaine Leflaive is as important an estate as exists in Burgundy. Shepherded for its glory years by Anne-Claude Leflaive, the domaine was the beacon of everything possible as we entered a new era in wine; she was the guiding hand beyond conversion to biodynamic viticulture throughout Burgundy, sought as a mentor for countless luminaries of today's wine scene. Moving out of the Parker-ized wines of the 80s and 90s, and returning the region as a greater whole toward sensible, sustainable viticulture, producing wines of class & elegance, that is a legend that will stand the test of time.

Domaine Leflaive

Brice de la Morandiere has guided his family's estate since Anne-Claude's passing, and has humbly continued to demand excellence throughout every aspect of production. This has included the slow but steady expansion into regions outside of the home plots surrounding the great Mont Rachet - into Macon and further outward towards Chablis, Savigny, Gevrey and more. 

The "Domaines" Leflaive label denotes the Macon wines, moving forward; "Esprit" will encompass the other negoce wines, while the Puligny, Chassagne, Meursault and traditional Leflaive-owned Grand Crus will remain under the Domaine Label. 

The Domaine owns 24 hectares in Burgundy, including 4.8 ha of Grand Crus, entirely Chardonnay. Winemaking is slow and intentional, if hands-off, largely. Fermentations occur naturally in small barrels, where it will age for one year prior to transferring to stainless for blending and additional aging before bottling.

The 2022 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is more muscular than the Bienvenues, exhibiting notes of sweet orchard fruit and peach mingled with clear honey, toasted nuts and flowers. Full-bodied, satiny and textural, with good depth and grip, it's more layered and powerful.

The 2022 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a very refined bouquet, beautifully delineated, with a little more intensity than the Bienvenue. A touch of wild mint comes through with aeration. The palate has a twist of bitter lemon and is pretty saline on the mid-palate, though maybe the Bienvenue possesses a touch more finesse? It has a lovely texture (again) with a long, peppery aftertaste. Excellent.
