Classic Leflaive sesame, ripe yellow fruit, and caramalized almond on the nose. Palate shows the vintage ripeness with moderate acidity. Drinking at peak. I would not wait.

Classic Leflaive sesame, ripe yellow fruit and white flowers on the nose. Palate is rich and ripe with moderate acidity and good concentration. Drinking at peak now. No need to wait.

This was actually the '01. A great showing, and more than held its weight alongside its bigger brother ('01 Leflaive BBM). Everything you want in mature, old school Leflaive, in that perfect sweet spot of balancing complexity from its age but still retaining vibrancy from its youth. Excellent.
