Domaine Leflaive, Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 2013

The Puligny Les Combettes offer even more weight and richness than the Folatieres and Clavoillon. In the bouquet rich and quite exotic orchard fruits … pear, acacia and white peach … balanced and supported by fresh citrus notes and a intense minerality. On the palate bigger and richer than Folatieres … it’s long, intense and powerful with a mineral and citrus driven minerality. The energetic acidity in this vintage really suits the Combettes terroir … lovely juice.

  I have old, fond memories of Domaine Leflaive, and have for many years treasured the Leflaive style.

This is for me, however, a wine with extraordinary emotional qualities that offers delightful hedonism. In plain English: It ...
