Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2010 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru “Clavoillon” pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with powerful notes of green apple, tropical fruit, stone fruit, lemon meringue, white flowers, nuts and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and slightly savory. Again, we were spared from premox; hallelujah! When Leflaive hits, it’s amongst the best in Burgundy. Drink now through 2035.

Well balanced with subtle richness and oak; very bright acidity still.... baked apple, caramelized pineapple, plenty of wood spice.

2010 surely one of the best vintage of the last decades for Puligny, Meursault and Montrachet - a beautiful and expressive wine still in its youth, beautiful oak still much present and softening slowly, a remarkable intense wine with delighting concentration and precise finesse 😃😋👏 from a 4,79ha plot, biodynamic driven, the grapes are pressed really slowly before being decanted for 24h and then set in barrels for AF and for 12 months, then settle 6 months in vats for preps prior bottling
