The 2017 Meursault 1er Cru Sous le Dos d'Ane offers up aromas of green apples, tart Anjou pear, spring flowers and mint. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with good concentration and chewy extract—Leflaive performed a green harvest on this young vines this year—underpinned by juicy acids and concluding with a pure finish. This is a promising Meursault in the making.
Racked to tank just before the 2018 harvest. Inviting nose of ripe pear and a touch of clemetine. Just a hint of smoky spice, not in the least reductive. Super-creamy texture to balance that clear-cut line of acidity. Beautifully balanced even with a little more breadth on the palate compared with the village Puligny. So creamy and generous on the finish. (JH)
