Lively and charming, Leflaive's 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Village delivers aromas of almond paste, fresh pastry, white flowers, and crisp orchard fruit. Medium to full-bodied, ample, and fleshy, it's succulent and expressive, with an open-knit core, lively acids, and a nicely defined finish.
Leflaive's 2016 Puligny-Montrachet Village is showing well, wafting from the glass with a fragrant bouquet of pink grapefruit, white peach, and spring flowers, complemented by a delicate touch of citrus blossom on the upper register. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with a glossy attack, good depth, and concentration and a bright but open knit, charming core, concluding with an elegantly saline finish. The wine's aromatic exotica mark it out as a product of its vintage, but it's a classy Puligny Village from this important Domaine.
The 2009 Puligny Montrachet comes across as a bit tauter than the Bourgogne. It shows good depth and minerality in a slightly lean, and surprisingly inward style for the year. This is a pretty, understated wine, but there is little of the radiance or exuberance of the year in the glass. The Puligny-Montrachet is made from several parcels in the villages that are vinified and aged separately and blended prior to blending.
