2009 Olivier Leflaive Meursault Perrieres 1er Cru

Olivier Leflaive have both their own Domaines as well as having close relationships with many of Burgundy’s top growers from whom they purchase either grapes or must. Some of these growers are ‘artists’ whose passion is as much their vines as their wines, a guarantee that Olivier Leflaive insists on when sourcing grapes, ensuring that the highest standards are met to uphold the reputation of the great vineyards and Climats of Burgundy. Olivier Leflaive wines have become an essential feature of the Burgundian landscape as well as being a  "must have" for all respectable cellars.

A faint note of mineral reduction combines with elegant and layered aromas of green apple, pear and acacia that are in keeping with the obvious refinement of the clean, cool and relatively precise flavors that exhibit a silky mouth feel on the classy and stylish finish that is finer but not necessarily more complex or longer.Tasted: Feb 01, 2011.
