The tasting note for 1993 Domaine Leflaive Montrachet Grand Cru is from Allen Meadows, The Burghound and the score is 98 - (from a tiny .08 ha parcel on the Chassagne side worked only by horse acquired in 1991). An incredibly fresh nose of intense and extremely expressive white flower and citrus aromas combiine with massive yet defined and well focused full-bodied flavors that posses solid ripeness and terrific underlying sève plus stunning length, balance and overall harmony. In sum, this is a great success for the vintage as well as the wine is very "Montrachet" in style and character. I can be approached now with much pleasure though to be sure, it will live for another decade plus. A great, even brilliant Montrachet that underscores just how well the Domaine performed in 1993. Tasted twice with consistent notes.
