Tasting at Leflaive. Rich and fat. coming across as very 2016 and reasonably Puligny-like. Very good Bourgogne to enjoy at release if priced sharply.

2016 Olivier Leflaive Montagny 1er Cru Bonneveaux Blanc 89 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte Chalonnaise, Montagny 1er Cru
Tasting at Leflaive. Sophie tells us this is from 1 of the 4 prestigious vineyards of the appellation. Rich orchard fruit with faintly sweet spice and mineral textures on finish. Very good length. Might be a very good value wine.

2016 Olivier Leflaive Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly Blanc
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Saint-Aubin 1er Cru
Tasting at Leflaive. Dense, almost meaty. Good concentration, but slightly awkward, seemingly rugged finish. Tough to fully assess, needs time?

2016 Olivier Leflaive Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Abbaye de Morgeot
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru
Tasting at Leflaive. Rich and fleshy with good weight and length, perhaps less complexity than the best Morgeot of the vintage. From Morgeot proper.

France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru
Tasting at Leflaive. From a Clos within Vergers. Rich start, then quickly very minerally with a long finish. Slightly mouth-puckering for just now, but my style of wine, 2022-.

2014 Olivier Leflaive Corton-Charlemagne 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru
Tasted at Leflaive from a bottle opened the day before. Complex aromas and flavors show apple, pear, lemon and peach at various places and stages. Rich start, dense middle, tense and bright finish. Very good, but probably better in a year or three.
