Fresh with lifted lemon. Seashells, white flowers. Not powerful but very balanced and approachable. Good.

Broad white flowers and lime on the nose. A hint of apples (premox on the horizon?) but a broad complex palate that’s quite developed. Lacks a little of the puligny definition you’d want but fun right now. Given the appley notes I’d check in with this soon or it could be another sad example of Leflaive’s descent into premox. A good wine right now.

2011. Such contrast to the Ampeau. So young and taught. More expressive by the minute.

2011 vintage. Great promise. Now it has great clean fruit and bracing acidity- which is hardly surprising. Enjoyable but the future is much more promising
