Les Folatières 2023 from Domaine Leflaive, one of Puligny-Montrachet's most emblematic premier cru sites. Elegant, mineral-driven Chardonnay with citrus precision and the purity that defines this producer's biodynamic approach.
The Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières 2023 from Domaine Leflaive comes from one of the appellation's most distinctive and extensive climat, situated at the heart of Puligny-Montrachet's slope. This premier cru benefits from ideal exposure and deeply calcareous, stony soils that give rise to wines of remarkable finesse, marrying aromatic intensity, mineral tension, and depth.
At Domaine Leflaive, the reference point for Puligny-Montrachet, vines have been farmed biodynamically for many years to preserve the natural balance of the soils and to express with clarity the singular character of each terroir. Vinification is conducted with precision and restraint, while ageing in barrel accompanies the wine without ever masking the purity of Chardonnay.
Les Folatières distinguishes itself through a particularly elegant and luminous style. The nose reveals complex notes of ripe citrus, white flowers, white peach, and lemon zest, mingled with nuances of wet stone and subtle touches of almond and brioche. On the palate, the wine impresses through its precision and depth: the structure is fine, energetic, and perfectly balanced, carried by a saline mineral framework and a long, vibrant finish.
The 2023 vintage offers here a wine that is both harmonious and highly expressive, combining fruit maturity with remarkable freshness. This is a great Puligny-Montrachet, capable of revealing itself progressively over the years.
At table, it pairs beautifully with roasted turbot, scallops, grilled lobster, Bresse chicken in cream sauce, or risotto with wild mushrooms. Its drinking window extends generally between 12 and 20 years, during which it will develop further complexity and depth.
