Olivier Leflaive Description
The 2022 vintage brought serenity back to the vineyard with a healthy harvest and correct volumes. With rainfall accumulations far from excessive, the year 2022 was marked by average temperatures higher than seasonal norms and rainfall deficits from the start of the vine’s vegetative cycle. At the beginning of April, episodes of frost will recall the terrible nights of April 6 and 7 of 2021, but fortunately with an impact beyond measure. The year 2022 is the year of all records for sunshine with the equivalent of an additional month of July.
This wine presents a nose of subtle aromas of almond, enriched with delicate floral touches of acacia and citrus fruits. On the palate, the attack is fine and precise. We discover well-defined lemon notes, bringing a beautiful liveliness. The structure is present and perfectly balanced, with an acidity which brings freshness throughout the tasting.
Ideal with cod cooked at low temperature, beurre blanc with herbs, seasonal vegetables, Crispy poultry and Risotto with porcini mushrooms or Soumaintrain, Citeaux.
