wow oh wow - what a surprise - i know 1995 Vega is very very good - but at this stage this is soooo good - i said 10 years ago, this will be the next 1968 -the very best Vega of all time - for me in 15-20 years perfection

98+ -- what a wonderful wine - a moment of wine - an immortal wine - 6 hours decant - but this bottle was not completely open for the very real fun - so powerful - what a structure - coffee - cassis - leather - hint of mint and at this stage - waht would this wine be, if this is ready? - Parker wrote in 1996: it has the potential to last for 50-100 years! (RP) Inner quote mark (8/1996) -- i agree

I´m very disappointed because of this 2021 Leflaive Bourgogne.
It´s really nothing special. I drank it and it was like a Bourgone Blanc from an unknown prducer - no speacial smell from the "normal" buttery bottles of Leflaive -- i cannot go with the others user here - what bolltes they had? -- for 90 USD ist is much to expensive - i regret the bought
