This surprisingly elegant yet substantial effort is from a unique Premier Cru in the Pommard appellation – located on the "La Petite Combe," this vineyard maintains beautiful freshness and elegance in its fruit. The wine has the capacity to develop without a doubt, but it is well-balanced and expressive even now.

A beautiful fruitiness and a certain nerviness, this is a wine that gets straight to the point without falling into rusticity thanks to beautiful tannins and gentle extraction.

Started in 2018 by Domaine Leflaive as a venture beyond the C’te de Beaune and the M¢connais, to Chablis and the C’te de Nuits, to explore the wider Burgundy, including small selections of Pinot Noir in addition to Chardonnay.
