June 5, 2023 - Started off waxy becomes fresher with air. Really pure fruit, round with rough acitidy to support it, long finish

Fat, rich, classic, big and creamy, not the most chiseled Leflaive but an excellent and elegant interpretation of the vintage. Still not convinced it is grand cru tho... it is just a superb premier cru, this structure of which is more evident with age. 93

March 1, 2013 - Leflaive vertikal: (Blind) Klar, gyllen gul. Generøs, søt nese med nøtter, sitronolje, mandel, fersken og mild harpiks. Varm og bred frukt med moderat sødme og god fylde. Hint av rosin. Avdempet syre. Fin lengde.
