2024 Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clavoillon

With ownership of over 85% of the climat and only one other family vinifying the Premier Cru Clavoillon, Domaine Leflaive controls the destiny of the name. Situated just north of Les Pucelles, this wine could have had a better fate if the vineyard wasn’t planted to Pinot Noir for hundreds of years before phylloxera impacted the region. It is only in the early 20th century that it was replanted, and this time with Chardonnay. Harvest began in September, with yields about half of 2023, but the remaining grapes for Domaine Leflaive show excellent health and promise freshness, precision, and balance.
