Domaine Leflaive, Bourgogne Blanc Vintage:2023 round and very forward flavors

round and very forward flavors lack the same concentration as the Amoureuses and while this is certainly pretty as the tannins are notably fine-grained

earth and hints of iron that can also be found on the pure

While the medium weight flavors do not have the same size and power of the Clos des Chênes

Not very balanced

Is this an attempt at a Guigal ‘La La’ style

Domaine Leflaive, Bourgogne Blanc Vintage:2023 round and very forward flavors(includes some declassified villages wine). A discreet hint of wood frames wonderfully fresh aromas of pear, white peach and lavender scents. There is a really lovely underlying tension to the racy yet plump middle weight flavors that also conclude in a clean and dry finale. If this can add depth with a few years of bottle age it should make for an outstanding Bourgogne. (86 89) 2019+
