Silky white Burgundy with a quiet inner strength, Domaine Leflaive’s 2015 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet layers ripe pear, white peach and lemon zest over a cool, stony core. The texture is glossy yet refined, the oak tucked neatly into the background, and the finish hums on with citrus, stone and subtle floral notes that promise even greater nuance with time in the cellar.

Domaine Leflaive’s Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is a biodynamically farmed, old-vine Chardonnay from a single 1.15-hectare parcel in the Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet climat, on clay-limestone soils just below the Montrachet hill in Puligny-Montrachet. Typically full-bodied yet refined, it is known for its exceptional purity and finesse, marrying floral tones and preserved citrus with nutty, subtly oaked complexity and the capacity for long aging.
