The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Village opens in the glass with aromas of peach, toasted nuts and white flowers. Medium-bodied, satiny and chalky, it's delicate and fine-boned, with a middle-weight, understated personality.

The most ethereal as well as the most elegant of Leflaive's whites is the 2021 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru, a deep, full-bodied wine redolent of white flowers, sweet citrus oil, bread dough, iodine, fresh mint and wet stones. Satiny, layered and incisive, with lovely depth and purity, it's taut and electric, concluding with a long, chalky finish.

The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clavoillon is youthfully reserved, unwinding in the glass with aromas of pear and green apple mingled with toasted nuts, freshly baked bread and iodine. Medium-bodied, tangy and electric, with racy acids and a searingly saline finish, it will age with grace.
