Puligny Montrachet Clavoillon 2021 Domaine Leflaive

Professionelle Bewertungen

Here the reduction is sufficient to overshadow the fruit. There is even better volume to the sleek and delicious middleweight flavors that are less mineral-driven but more powerful and slightly more persistent and bone-dry finish that is also exceptionally well-balanced. This is excellent and I would go so far as to observe that it's the best vintage for the Clavoillon in a long time. It is typically considered to be less interesting than the other 1ers (and not without reason) in the Leflaive portfolio and while it doesn't surpass them in 2021, it is most impressive nonetheless.

Rather a severe nose, a form of reduction, possibly allied to sulphur. This soon cleans up. I asked for a second pour of this wine, and it was totally clean. This is more reserved with a depth of fruit that impresses, with also good variation, complexity, all white fruit, doesn’t have any specific citrus mote, A little barrel toast complements rather than interferes. Impressive length.
