Domaine Leflaive is one of the leading wine producers in Puligny-Montrachet, focusing almost entirely on white wines made from Chardonnay. This particular cuvée is sourced from the Premier Cru ‘Les Pucelles’, where the Domaine owns three biodynamically farmed parcels. The 2005 release drinks like a carefully crafted toasted sesame dessert. Ripe tropical fruits contrast with beads of lemon, green apple and orange extract. Jasmine petals and sea salt sprinkled across the plate elevate the tasting experience.
