Truly an ethereal bottle of humble Macon. Fresh with an array of flavours, creamy waxy honey presented with purity. Bit puzzled by a touch of sweetness though. A wine like this makes me feel I’m in the presence of greatness.

Purchased directly on release. Made by the late, great, Anne-Claude Leflaive one of the greatest white wine makers in the world.
Light gold. 100% chardonnay but so pure and crisp. Mineral infused lemon, pear and even a hint of the more exotic… pineapple? Wonderful refreshing mouthfeel, ripe, balanced and refreshing. Good length showing the great purity of fruit. Delicious stuff and you will want more than one glass!
Enjoy with pan seared halibut with a lemon/caper crème fresh dressing.

Slightly oxidative nose but incredible acidity in palate.
Great mouth feel with a lingering citrus/lime bite and quite mineral. Very very good at the moment

Was worried I had left this too long - caught it just in time I think.
