2019 Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet, Burgundy, France - 1.5L MAG
The 2019 Puligny-Montrachet from Domaine Leflaive is a quintessential expression of this storied village—refined, mineral-laced, and gracefully structured. In magnum, its aging curve is extended, preserving freshness and layering complexity. Aromas of lemon curd, green apple, white florals, and crushed oyster shell evolve into hints of hazelnut and subtle smoke. On the palate, it’s precise and silken, with a core of citrus and orchard fruit energized by a firm spine of acidity and a long, saline finish.

ABOUT THE WINE
Domaine Leflaive’s village-level Puligny-Montrachet is a masterclass in terroir transparency and restrained elegance. Sourced from several biodynamically farmed parcels across the village—including Les Tremblots, Les Houlières, and Le Trezin—the 2019 vintage reflects a warm yet balanced growing season, offering both ripeness and tension. The fruit was gently pressed, fermented with indigenous yeasts in large-format oak (20% new), and aged for 12 months on fine lees, followed by additional time in tank to harmonize before bottling. In magnum, the wine evolves slowly, deepening in texture while maintaining its mineral backbone. Enjoy with poached lobster, Bresse chicken in cream, or a simple plate of aged Comté.
