2021 Olivier Leflaive Champlots 750ml

Experience the lean, limestone-driven energy of the 2021 Olivier Leflaive Saint-Aubin 1er Cru "Les Champlots" 750ml at VS Liquor. Les Champlots is a prestigious vineyard perched on a steep, south-west facing slope overlooking the hamlet of Gamay. Known for its stony, calcareous clay soils, this terroir produces Chardonnay with a distinctively "iodine" and flinty mineral character. The 2021 Burgundy vintage was a year of extreme scarcity and meticulous craftsmanship; severe spring frosts led to remarkably low yields, but the resulting fruit possesses an incredible concentration of flavor and a vibrant, "electric" acidity. Following sustainable farming practices and 12 months of aging in French oak (20% new), winemaker Solène Panigai has produced a wine that balances Saint-Aubin’s signature tension with the sophisticated polish of the Leflaive house style.

Whether you are seeking a refined gift for a Burgundy aficionado or a high-scoring masterpiece (91 Points, Jasper Morris; 91 Points, Wine Enthusiast) to pair with scallop carpaccio, herb-crusted poultry, or a creamy Comté cheese course, our online purchase system makes ordering effortless. Take advantage of our reliable home delivery service to have this 13% ABV expression of Premier Cru terroir brought directly to your door. In the glass, it reveals a pale lemon-green brilliance. The bouquet is highly sophisticated and focused, offering aromas of candied lemon, white flowers, and green apple, layered with notes of fresh mint, toasted almond, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and angular, delivering a concentrated core of citrus and orchard fruit framed by a racy acidity and a long, saline finish that hums with the mineral energy of the Champlots hillside.
