Leflaive's 2014s are easily some of the best wines that we've seen from them in the past decade.
Across the board, they have show-stopping elegance, real impact and complexity, and serious cut and structure.
The 2014 vintage produced simply extraordinary white Burgundies. It's one of the best young white Burgundy vintages that I've tasted.
The fact that Leflaive's Bourgogne Blanc is as good as it is underlines the quality that the vintage delivered. It's rare that you encounter this level of punch, refinement, and detailed minerality at this level.Â
Like Roulot's Bourgogne Blanc, Leflaive's 2014 boasts so much class and completeness that it transcends the humble category. Leflaive is one of the legends of white Burgundy, and the 2014 allows you to witness the greatness of this domaine at the entry level.
For many years, Leflaive has resided at the very highest level of white Burgundy. It's right there with Coche-Dury, Lafon, Roulot, and Ramonet. The 2014 Bourgogne shows Leflaive at the top of their game. Don't miss this.Â

Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate: "The 2014 Bourgogne Blanc has developed nicely during the remainder of its élevage since I tasted it from stainless steel tank, offering apple blossom, flint and smoky scents that possess much more character. The palate is fresh on the entry with citrus peel and fresh Granny Smith, well judged acidity and a bright and lively finish. This is precisely what you want from a Bourgogne Blanc."
