2005 Leflaive, Domaine Puligny Montrachet les Combettes Blanc
Condition:
Pale yellow. Subtly complex nose offers peach, flowers, spices, truffle and vanillin oak. Suave, stylish and silky, with subtle fruit and floral elements and perfectly integrated acidity. Harmonious and not a bit heavy. This builds slowly toward the back, finishing subtle and long. Left behind rather Meursault-like aromas of truffle and hazelnut in the empty glass. The estate-wide yield was about 48 hectoliters per hectare in 2005, according to Morey, but more like 44 here. This was the first '05 to finish its malolactic fermentation and is showing very well today. ST
