The 2024 Domaine Leflaive Macon-Verze Blanc is a biodynamic Chardonnay from several vineyard plots in the heart of the Verze Valley.
The vineyards have clay-limestone soils of different depths, with south-east and south-west exposures. The total surface is 25ha15a, or 62 acres, planted from 1940 to 2023.
The 2024 vintage was challenging and rainy, with rainfall from January to October reaching one and a half times the usual amount. Flowering occurred in a humid atmosphere that encouraged coulure, and the cool, rainy season slowed vine growth and ripening. Harvesting began in Puligny on September 16, with modest yields but excellent sanitary condition of the remaining grapes.
About the Producer
Domaine Leflaive is based in Puligny-Montrachet and is one of the most important producers in the Cote de Beaune, focusing almost entirely on white wines made from Chardonnay.
Anne Claude Leflaive converted the vineyards to biodynamics and is considered a pioneer of biodynamics in Burgundy.
