The Sous Le Dos D'âne vineyard in Meursault is known for producing wines of extraordinary depth and finesse, and Domaine Leflaive’s 2008 offering is no exception. This 1er Cru reflects the exceptional terroir and careful craftsmanship that Leflaive is renowned for, delivering a wine that combines richness with a remarkable sense of balance.

On the nose, the wine opens with aromas of ripe stone fruit—peach, apricot, and a hint of citrus—intertwined with layers of toasted almonds, honey, and a touch of vanilla. There’s an unmistakable minerality that adds depth, offering a subtle edge that cuts through the wine’s richness. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and rounded, with a creamy texture supported by vibrant acidity that keeps the wine fresh and lively. The finish is long and evolving, with lingering notes of fruit, nuts, and a light salinity that gives it a refined, crisp finish.

This Meursault 1er Cru is perfect with rich dishes such as lobster with butter, roasted poultry, or a creamy risotto. The wine is drinking beautifully now, but it has the structure to evolve further over the next several years, revealing even more complexity and elegance as it ages. A quintessential expression of Meursault, this wine is a perfect showcase of Domaine Leflaive’s expertise and the beauty of Burgundy’s premier white wines.

Over the past couple of decades Domaine Leflaive has re-established itself as probably the most important address for winemaking in the world famous village of Puligny-Montrachet. They accomplished this through a singular attention to growing and making the very best Chardonnay possible. Indeed, Domaine Leflaive grows only Chardonnay and nothing else. The entire estate has been converted to biodynamic farming. The winemaking is extremely precise, gentle, and driven by a passion to showcase how this extremely popular grape can perfectly capture the subtle nuances of terroir.
