2015 - Bourgogne Blanc, Leflaive

The 2015 Bourgogne Blanc continues to show well from bottle, exhibiting aromas of ripe lemons, pear and wheat toast, complemented by a delicate top note of petrol. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural, its fleshy core of fruit underpinned by lively acids. A touch broader and richer than it was two years ago, this Bourgogne is showing well, but it falls somewhere between youth and maturity right now, as it hasn't yet acquired all the aromatic complexity that will come with another few years in the cellar.
