The wine
Description and technical sheet
The Puligny Montrachet Premier Cru Le Clavoillon 2008 by Domaine Leflaive is an outstanding biodynamic white wine made from 100% Chardonnay. Located in Puligny-Montrachet, a benchmark of the Côte de Beaune, the Le Clavoillon cru spans 4.79 hectares of calcareous-clay soils. The grapes were carefully hand-harvested through continuous monitoring of the plots' ripeness and then gently pressed to obtain the must. The alcoholic fermentation occurred in oak barrels, 22% of which were new. The wine then rested for 12 months in barrels and an additional 6 months in tanks. No chemicals or synthetic products were used either in the vineyard or the cellar; all necessary operations were conducted with the utmost respect for biodiversity, in harmony with terrestrial and lunar cycles.
PULIGNY MONTRACHET PREMIER CRU LE CLAVOILLON 2008 DOMAINE LEFLAIVE: TASTING NOTES
The Puligny Montrachet Premier Cru Le Clavoillon 2008 by Domaine Leflaive presents a brilliant straw-yellow color with golden reflections. On the nose, it reveals clear aromas of ripe yellow fruit intertwined with hints of honey, citrus, and roasted hazelnuts. The bouquet is further enriched by warm notes of butter, incense, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is intense, structured, and creamy, with profound sapidity and elegant freshness. The finish is long, with flavors of quince, grapefruit zest, and cinnamon. It pairs wonderfully with rich vegetarian dishes and seafood recipes, and it is also excellent with white meats.
