As a negociant that focuses on forging durable relationships with some of the best winegrowers on the Cote de Beaune, Olivier Leflaive Freres bottles exemplary AC regional, village, Premiers Crus and Grands Crus. Along the Cote de Beaune -only 16 miles in length- Chardonnay achieves greatness equal to Pinot Noir grown just to the north. Leflaive's holdings are centered around the villages of Puligny, Chassagne and Meursault with additional holdings throughout the Cote d'Or. Olivier Leflaive's vocation is not just about making good wine. Maintaining a personalized and convivial relationship with his clients, taking the time to share the richness, diversity and sensitivity of the world of wine through a complete oeno-touristic immersion from vine to glass. The conviviality of enjoying a glass of wine amongst friends led Olivier to open Burgundy's first table d'hote enabling him to receive guests and to introduce them to some of the great wines of Burgundy through a tasting accompanied by regional specialties. He then opened a four-star hotel to allow guests to stay longer and to enjoy the full Burgundy experience.
Tasting Notes
This wine is intensely fruity and expressive. There is an abundance of ripe fruits such as plum and black cherry. Notes of fig and date blend harmoniously, bringing a touch of sweetness and complexity. The attack is ample and generous, offering a nice volume. The slightly waxy texture provides a sensation of roundness and softness, enveloping the palate with elegance.
