The 2021 Olivier Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet is a beautifully elegant white Burgundy that highlights the precision, minerality and refinement of one of the Côte de Beaune’s most prestigious Chardonnay appellations. Crafted from carefully selected vineyard parcels across Puligny-Montrachet, it opens with lifted aromas of citrus blossom, green apple and white peach, layered with subtle almond, flint and gentle oak spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity, silky texture and exceptional balance, showing flavours of lemon zest, orchard fruit and fine mineral tension. The finish is long, fresh and polished, delivering both purity and sophistication.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding classic Puligny-Montrachet for customers who appreciate elegant, mineral-driven Chardonnay with finesse rather than overt richness. It’s refined, versatile and highly food-friendly, offering exceptional balance and drinkability. Drink now or cellar over the next 5–10 years. Perfect with lobster, scallops, roast chicken or fine seafood dishes.
