Domaine Leflaive Meursault Sous Le Dos d'Ane 1er Cru 2020

Domaine Leflaive is one of the world’s great wine domains, producing some of Burgundy’s most sought-after white wines. The Leflaive family Domaine has a history dating back to 1717 and has 23 hectares of holdings spread throughout Grand Cru, 1er Cru, Village, and AOC level vineyards around Puligny.

The Domaine gained its prominence in the hands of Anne-Claude Leflaive, who converted the vineyards to biodynamics in the 1990s giving the wines greater transparency in their expression of terroir. Sous le Dos d'Ane is one of several Premier Cru vineyards within the tiny region of Blagny, on the slope of the Cote d'Or escarpment in Burgundy. Despite its location, the Chardonnay wines from this vineyard can be labelled under the Meursault Premier Cru appellation to take advantage of the fame of Meursault. Sous le Dos d'Ane Premier Cru white wines are complex, rich, and have stony flavours, with warm scents of honey and spice.
