By Bill Nanson
(Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles) The nose here is gorgeous - a little understated maybe - high-toned fruit wrapped in a soft coating, but lovely. In the mouth finally we have a wine with the correct balance of concentration and acidity - it’s really excellent. Head and shoulders above the previous wines though still a laughable 169 swiss francs.

(Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles) Light yellow color; vanilla, lemon and acacia nose; focused, lemon, with minerality, depth and good acidity; leaner than I expected but structured; medium finish 91+ pts.

3/23/2024 - atbarbar Does not like this wine:
Over the hill, also not clear how the bottle had been stored. Very dark gold color, super oxydized if not maderized nose. Lacks freshness on the palate. Soso vintagemost likely contributes. A pity.

Tasted over the hill, maybe a few years too late on this bottle. Slight oxidization (could be premox?), lacking the acid and tension especially when next to the Ente Meursault.

Drinkable but alas either premox or over the hill. Not what was expected but had some interesting elements. A big let-down though.

Nose: honeysuckle, brioche, mango, vanilla
Notes: Quite a good nose upon opening. Medium to full bodied with a bread and caramel like aftertaste. This is certainly a very well conditioned Leflaive and what a classical leflaive should taste and smell like. What surprised me is that the color is still so light and vibrant. This is drinking quite perfectly now and I doubt if this will get any better with time. I feel the premox problem in white Burgundies is stopping many wine lovers from opening back vintages and I'm feeling lucky today for having this wonderful bottle.
