Domaine Leflaive 'Les Chenes' Macon-Verze 2023

  • TASTING NOTE: A lovely nose of white peach, mint and green melon. Full and sappy in the mouth, layered with flavour and cut by minerally acidity. Nice proportion, poise and balance and excellent now with the propensity to age well.
  • ABOUT THE WINE: Clay-limestone terroir with little depth before reaching the 
    bedrock. Gentle to very steep slopes. 3.43 ha located in the 
    heart of the VerzĂ© valley, “Les ChĂȘnes” comprises two southwest-facing parcels.

  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Third-generation Anne-Claude Leflaive took over in 1994, working with winemaker Pierre Morey until his retirement in 2008. Since the untimely death of Anne-Claude in 2015, her nephew Brice de La MorandiĂšre has 
    run the estate; he appointed current winemaker Pierre Vincent in 2017, who 
    will be leaving the estate at the end of 2024. The family farms 24ha in the CÎte 
    de Beaune and as much again in the Mùconnais, entirely planted to Chardonnay. The domaine has been farmed according to biodynamic principles since the harvest of 1997;  Brice de La MorandiÚre believes that this has dramatically benefited the clay-rich soils. The Chardonnay grapes are lightly crushed before a slow press, a brief settling and then fermentation in cask. During the first year, the wines are left in barrel and not racked until August.
