The Esprit de Leflaive Beaune 1er Cru Les Tuvilains 2019, from the clay-limestone hillsides of Beaune, unveils a Pinot Noir of great finesse. Its aromas of cherry and raspberry, lifted by gentle spices, unite with a silky and mineral palate. To be savoured now or cellared for 5 to 8 years, it pairs beautifully with game and aged cheeses.
Heir to a legendary expertise in Burgundy, Esprit de Leflaive extends the exacting standards of Domaine Leflaive through a selection of exceptional terroirs beyond Puligny-Montrachet.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of Beaune, Premier Cru Les Tuvilains, where chalk and marls bestow upon the wines a distinctive minerality and refined elegance.
- Winemaking: A respectful approach to the fruit, barrel ageing for a silky structure and a pure expression of Pinot Noir, without artifice.
