Macon-Verzé

Domaine Leflaive, based in Puligny-Montrachet, is one of the most important producers in the Côte de Beaune. Focusing almost entirely on white wines made from Chardonnay, the Domaine makes four grand cru wines and four premier crus in Puligny-Montrachet. The Domaine was founded by Joseph Leflaive, a former engineer. In 1905, he purchased vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet which had been ravaged by phylloxera, and set about replanting and expanding them. Upon his death in 1953, his sons Vincent and Jo took over the running of the estate, and are widely credited with building up the reputation that Leflaive enjoys today. 

At the beginning of 2003, Domaine Leflaive acquired five parcels of mature Chardonnay vines in the commune of Verzé in the Maconnais region. From the very first year, the vines were cultivated biodynamically.

Representing fantastic value for white Burgundy wine, this bottle offers complex layers of stone fruit complemented by a zesty citrus mineral character. Ready to be enjoyed earlier than the wines of Puligny-Montrachet.
