Reviewed June 2024Note: includes about 20% of declassified young vines from various vineyards. A very pretty nose freely reveals its aromas of apple, pear and lemon rind. The succulent, delicious and appealingly vibrant middleweight flavors possess a relatively refined texture while displaying fine depth and length for a wine of this level. The 20% addition of young vines from upper-level vineyards clearly helps and overall, this is excellent.*Burghound Outstanding top Value!*

Fresh pale lemon yellow. There is immediate energy on the nose, yet with grace. Lime blossom fragrance, pleasing salinity, subtle nuances, a thoroughly enjoyable medium-plus bodied 2022.

Wine Advocate
Leflaive's 2022 Bourgogne Blanc delivers aromas of pear, green apple, white toast and citrus zest, framed by a discreet touch of reduction. Medium-bodied, satiny and racy, it's fine-boned and saline. (WK)

Vinous
The 2022 Bourgogne Blanc has a pleasant bouquet with Granny Smiths and light white peach aromas, which are very well-defined. The palate is well-balanced with fine weight, taut, fresh and quite potent for a regional white. The 2022 is satisfyingly persistent on the finish. This is white regional Burgundy from the top drawer.(NM)
Notes
Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "Three large parcels bringing 4 hectares, all in the commune of Puligny. 10% new oak. Vibrant quite mineral aromas too. Stricter and more direct than the Pouilly with a more present balance. More rustic but also more intense and vibrant than the PF too!!" (01/2024)
