The fruit is a bit richer and more substantial. There are beautiful aged notes of buttered popcorn and white mushrooms. The acidity is enough to lift the wine but not dominate it. A unanimous WOTN tonight including the somm who was able to taste all our wines tonight.

This more than held its own in a lineup of 90s-era Leflaive Grand Crus. Open with grand cru weight and linear drive. Shockingly, there's still room for improvement. Impressively complex.

clear bright colour. Not overly developed so good start. No premix on nose. Clean hay butter and minerals . Lot of depth and lift. Good broad fruit on pale , plenty of lift and complexity. Just drifted away on the finish, otherwise excellent.

It smells like lemon, toast, honeysuckle and hazelnut.
