Note di degustazione
A notably ripe but not really exotic nose attractively layered and fresh aromas that combine floral nuances with those of citrus peel, pear and soft spice hints. There is good energy to the medium weight flavors that possess solid detail on the palate coating finish that is at once clean, dry and, minerally and still a bit youthfully austere. This is a quality 2018 that is coming along nicely and is a wine that could easily be enjoyed now though I would advise holding it for another few years in the hopes that more depth will progressively develop.

A fine effort, the 2018 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Clavoillon wafts from the glass with notes of white flowers, crisp yellow orchard fruit, fresh pastry and blanched almonds. Medium to full-bodied, bright and precise, it's elegant and fine-boned, with—as I observed last year—none of the blockiness of yesteryear's Clavoillon.
The 2018 Puligny-Montrachet Clavoillon 1er Cru, Leflaive’s largest vineyard at 4.8 hectares, has a very perfumed bouquet with mirabelle, crushed pebble and a touch of sherbet blossoming from the nose. The well-balanced palate offers a touch of spice on the entry, good acidity, moderate depth and a suggestion of ginger toward the sappy finish.
