Burgundy / France

White

Anise, minerals, butter, and toast can be found in the nose of Leflaive's 2000 Montrachet. An intense wine, it is medium-bodied, juicy, crammed with French toast, mineral, and acacia blossom flavors.

The combination of small production and picking early comes from a desire to retain vibrancy and energy in the wines over and above riper styles of Chardonnay found elsewhere in the Cotes de Beaune. This mineral driven “understated” yet “explosive” style ...
