Nose: white flower, guava, sesame, citrus Notes: this wine has pretty good weight and is performing quite nicely today. Pretty long aftertaste although clearly Clavoillon is the least interesting premier cru from Leflaive. Pretty young still and probably can cellar for much longer. I find the aroma and overall profile to be not too interesting and expressive but I still would rate this as a pretty good white from this prestigious Domaine. Drink: 2030+ Rating: 90

Plastic gloves, orchard fruits, smoke and nuts on the nose. Fantastic mouthfeel, swarming fruit intensity, so round and pleasing, just pure class. A bit more firm through the long finish.

Burgundy Tasting (Restaurant Schweizer's, Stuttgart): Glass: Spiegelau Burgundy Clear, pale golden color. Nose a bit muted and closed down. This wine requires focus, otherwise you will not notice the elegance and balance. Very fine, silky texture, very good balance and harmony. Beautiful mineral core, spicy. Good length. Potential for at least another decade. 93+

Once again. Consistent notes. Flinty and generous . Chiseled acidity. Will go the distance but nothing wrong with drinking it now.
