The history of Domaine Leflaive goes back to 1717 when Claude Leflaive settled in Puligny-Montrachet. The Domaine as we know it today owes its’ existence to of Joseph Leflaive (1870–1953), who was a native of Puligny-Montrachet.As the domaine had suffered from the phylloxera epidemic, Joseph undertook a program of replanting, extension and enhancement. Following Joseph’s death in 1953 his four children took over, creating a Société Civile d’Exploitation. Today the domaine is run by Brice de La Morandiere, the great grandson of Joseph Leflaive. Pierre Morey was estate manager since 1989 until Eric Remy took over in 2008.The Domaine owns almost 25 hectares of vineyards mainly located in and around Puligny-Montrachet. Their holdings include 0.08 hectares of Le Montrachet, 2 hectares of Chevalier-Montrachet, 1.91 hectares of Bâtard-Montrachet, 1.6 hectares of Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet Premier Crus; Le Clavoillon, Les Combettes, Les Folatières and Les Pucelles. Domaine Leflaive has been biodynamic since 1997. Winemaking follows Burgundian tradition. The wines are fermented at between 18 to 24˚ C, given 10 to 40 per cent light toast new oak (there is one 500-litre cask for the Montrachet) and, after 12 months, racked into stainless steel where they wait another 6 months before bottling. This is the very summit of white Burgundy. Outstanding wines that have the capacity to be very long-lived and develop richness, depth and complexity with bottle-age.
