| Community Tasting Notes (average 92.2 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 15 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by joshabramson on 7/11/2023 & rated 96 points: This is great! On the nose you get a bit of the honeyed old white burg thing, but on the palate this is super fresh and zingy, really quite piercing acidity. Love it. (406 views) | | | Tasted by hprphf on 8/26/2021 & rated 95 points: Leroy Week; 8/24/2021-8/27/2021 (Hong Kong): Sesame, white flowers, peach, yellow fruit. Just classic classic 90s Leflaive, opulent, sweet and with those characteristic creamy flavors. Rich, sweet and precise on the palate supported by the perfectly balanced vintage acidity. Pinching sharp finish. More please. 94-95 (917 views) | | | Tasted by jchan1 on 8/26/2021 & rated 92 points: White-flower aromatics. Supple, and the prominent 96 acidity added edges to the overall profile. (886 views) | | | Tasted by kr522 on 6/25/2021 & rated 91 points: Had this at Guy Savoy where it’s been stored since release. At a mature state, with notes of baked apple and caramel alongside 96’s crisp acidity. Enjoyable but nowhere near the energy or density of the GCs from this vintage (particularly Batard), I would drink up if I owned any. (823 views) | | | Tasted by aquacongas on 7/14/2020 & rated 94 points: blind
at his peak, great aciidty, oak well integrated, saline, some nuts. 94 (1247 views) | | | Tasted by Jonne on 11/25/2017 & rated 94 points: Härlig honungsdoft med citrusinslag. Fet känsla som balanseras av pigga syror. Känns mycket fräscht men skulle inte törsas lagra det så värst mycket längre.

Pris: 1 700 kronor. (1375 views) | | | Tasted by JimN on 5/14/2014: Sadly, opened five straight bottles and all five were heavily oxidized, with one corked as well. Risks of buying on the secondary market, especially white burgundy. (3119 views) | | | Tasted by Stefanos T. on 2/19/2014 flawed bottle: Might have been nice despite some hints of oxidation, but the bottle was heavily corked. (3016 views) | | | Tasted by pjaines on 4/16/2013: Flint, minerals, toast, oak, lemons. Decent but the doubt lingers about premox.... (3406 views) | | | Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 8/29/2012: An absolute ripsnorter. Toast, flint, white peach, lemons and minerals. Long and linear, superb rocky detail. (3463 views) | | | Tasted by sphBacchus on 1/12/2010 & rated 90 points: Consumed at Cepage restuarant in Hong Kong . Wonderful on the nose with high minerality . Good length but somehat subdued - perhaps a few years past its best . (3351 views) | | | Tasted by Charlie Carnes on 6/3/2008 & rated 88 points: This wine is a little tired, it seems. There is a nice burst of steely minerals, and a very nice tart lemon peel finish. Crisp acid. I bet it was better 5 years ago. (1984 views) | | | Tasted by dream on 2/10/2007 & rated 90 points: Golden color. Mature, slightly madeirized nose of hazelnuts, lemon oil and rich minerals. Intense with firm acidity but also mature fruit flavors of hazelnuts and lemons. Has an oily texture and finishes slightly madeirized but in a good way that adds tang and complexity. Concentrated and a bit smoky and the saturated flavors stay in the mouth for quite some time after the wine is gone. If anything, lacks a bit of the usual elegance of premier cru white Burgundy. Delicious and ready now. (1991 views) | | | Tasted by dream on 12/23/2006 & rated 92 points: Seems perfectly aged with delicious flavors of lemon/lime and hazlenut. Nice oily texture combined with a concentrated, long, minerally finish. This would show beautifully at the dinner table with fish. (1743 views) |

2019 vintage reports

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
