Leflaive, Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru, Les Combettes 2013

Description

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. Les Combettes is one of the most renowned premier cru vineyards in the commune of Puligny Montrachet, largely owned by the Domaine Leflaive which gives life to this splendid wine. The old Chardonnay vineyards give few but very concentrated bunches. Part of the vinification and aging take place in barrique. The aromas are splendid, notes of exotic fruit and roasting combine with dried fruit and spices. On the palate it is savory and full-bodied, with a long persistence.
