I hadn't drunk Leflaive's 2011 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru for several years, but this precocious, demonstrative vintage continues to perform very well. Exhibiting aromas of citrus oil, pear, white flowers, freshly baked bread and bee pollen, it's full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with a fleshy, enveloping core of fruit, racy acids and a long, saline finish. Impressively, the last glass showed even better 24 hours later.
