Description
The Mâcon-Verzé is a wine of great purity, both floral and mineral, expressing a lively energy, ready to be enjoyed earlier than the wines of Puligny-Montrachet.
This is a pure and expressive example with foral and mineral aromas along with fruity notes of lemon, pear, and citrus to round out the nose. The palate is bright and fresh with plenty of acidity and a nice touch of spice for a layered finish.
Domaine Leflaive has been entirely a family domaine since its creation. Brice de La Morandière, great grandson of the founder, Joseph Leflaive, represents the fourth generation at the head of the domaine. In 2015, after an international career in industry, he succeeded Anne-Claude, pioneer in biodynamics. It is with the same philosophy of respect for the great terroirs, humility toward the forces of nature, and relentless pursuit of excellence in viticulture and in winemaking that the domaine will continue to grow in the future.
- Hand harvested, sorted and pressed in Mâcon, the wine is decanted over night and then brought back to Puligny for both fermentation and aging at the Domaine.
- Fermentation: 72% in cement egg and 28% in new oak barrels.
- Aging: 12 months in oak, then 6 months in stainless steel vat before bottling.
