2015 Domaine Leflaive Puligny Montrachet Clavoillon 750ml
Located in New York
“The 2015 Clavoillon was showing very nicely at the time of my visit, with plenty of elegance in evidence on both the nose and palate. The bouquet delivers a fine and quite floral constellation of lemon blossoms, apple, pear, chalky soil tones, a touch of fresh almond and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite open structurally, with a fine core, sound framing acids and good mineral drive on the long and still fairly primary finish. More complexity will emerge with further bottle age, but this wine is going to be difficult to keep one’s hands off of in its youth, if it does not firm up a bit more after bottling, as it is wide open and already delicious to drink today! 2018-2035.”

Reviews & Scores
Of all the domaine's wines, Leflaive's 2015 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Clavoillon is arguably the cuvée that has benefited the most from biodynamic viticulture, as what was formerly a rather foursquare, blocky premier cru in the 1990s is now routinely more dynamic and lively. The 2015 opens in the glass with a pretty bouquet of fresh pear, citrus zest, orange blossom and pastry cream. On the palate, the wine is bright, energetic and pure with good depth and a tangy, penetrating finish. While the race is close today, the Clavoillon is holding more in reserve than the domaine's excellent Puligny Village, and its acids are brighter, so this will reward a bit of patience. (WK) - WA

A fresh style, with a gossamer texture framing lemon, apple and white peach flavors. Accents of baking spices and mineral add depth as this unfolds to a long, intense aftertaste. (BS) - WS
