Perfectly expressed Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru, from leading Burgundian producer, Olivier Leflaive.

Puligny-Montrachet's Les Referts is a premier cru vineyard abutting Meursault Charmes and the wine has some of the weightier richness of a Meursault. In youth this wine is broader and masculine but in bottle will develop scents of white flowers, a creamy palate and taut minerality.

Chardonnay, 2007, Dry, Full bodied, 13.5%, Cork

Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts 1er Cru Olivier Leflaive 2007

"Bold, minerally and savoury, with toasted nuts, straw and a smoky, citrus lick, this complex wine was the star of the tasting... Beautiful smoky oak - a really classy nose, and follows through on the palate." 87/100

Imbibe Magazine (December 2010)

"What wine would you pour your daughter, and where? Bob Tyrer takes his little girl on a fantasy tour and would stop in Burgundy, recommending "heavier white burgundies such as 2007 Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts 1er Cru."
