(Domaine Leflaive Bâtard-Montrachet) Light medium lemon yellow color; nice butter, ghee, hazelnut, creamy nose; tight, tasty, elegant, although a touch oxidized, creamy textured, tart lemon, cream palate; long finish (in blindtasting of four '04 white Burgs, including three Dom. Leflaives, this one ranked last for the group, second for me, and garnered a total of 63 votes)

Quite nice. Good nose, and palate feel. Lacking depth and finish.

Slightly more advanced than ideal, perhaps flirting with premox. But the wine holds up well, and the vanilla pod/honey/white flower notes keep reverberating throughout the night. Wonderful and astounding performance.

After reading some of the notes about this 2019 ex domaine batch, I must admit I was somewhat nervous ahead of opening the bottle given the occasion at stake.
Thankfully, it was only slightly advanced and the vanilla pod nose keep on growing through the evening and it was mesmerisingly good.
Palate was buttery and honey depicting a well matured PM burg.

Complex aromatics of struck match, custard apple, fennel and white peach. It has rich, dense, sappy orchard fruits that stain the palate. The base is super chalky and length imposing. Simply superb!
