2015 Leflaive Burgs arriving!




2015 Olivier Leflaive Puligny Montrachet...$64.99
Comes on softly, with butterscotch, vanilla, pastry, floral and white peach aromas and flavors. Remains open and turns tense and fresh on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2024.
Rated 91/100 The Wine Spectator


2015 Olivier Leflaive Chassagne Montrachet....$64.99
This fleshy white offers peach, apple, lemon, honey and spice flavors. A fine structure lends support, providing balance and driving the lingering finish of citrus and baking spices. Drink now through 2022. 400 cases imported.
Rated 91/100 The Wine Spectator


2015 Olivier Leflaive Rully Les Cloux 1er Cru...$28.99
Though round in profile, this is undercut by vivid acidity, remaining well-delineated. Apple, lemon and subtle stone flavors play out from the start to the long finish. Drink now through 2024. 400 cases imported
Rated 90/100 The Wine Spectator

2015 Olivier Leflaive Meursault Charmes 1er Cru....$92.99
An attractively fresh and bright nose reflects notes of various white orchard fruit, petrol, citrus peel and a whiff of oak. There is a more refined mouth feel to the round, forward and beguilingly delicious medium weight flavors that culminate in a citrusy, dry and well-balanced finale. This well-made effort should drink well both young and with 5 to 8 or so years of bottle age.
Rated 91/100 Allen Meadows, Burghound
