Bâtard-Montrachet Domaine Leflaive 2008 is a Grand Cru Chardonnay from the prestigious Bâtard-Montrachet vineyard in Burgundy. Domaine Leflaive, renowned for its biodynamic practices, tends to a 1.91-hectare parcel in this historically significant vineyard. The 2008 vintage faced a cool and damp start, but warm September weather led to a balanced harvest. The nose features aromas of mineral and floral notes, while the palate reveals concentrated yellow fruit flavours such as peach and citrus, supported by a creamy mouthfeel. This wine’s structure reflects the exceptional terroir, with potential for continued evolution in the bottle.
Vinous
The 2008 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has an advanced brioche and melted butter scented nose with touches of pumpkin and nougat. It is actually quite pleasurable, although nothing similar to a Bâtard-Montrachet. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth texture, honeyed and nutty, rather smudged towards the lackluster finish. Hello premature oxidation. Tasted blind at 67 Pall Mall in London. Neal Martin1st May 2019
