Tasting Notes

**Note: Leflaive is the largest holder of Clavoillon with a whopping 4.8 ha parcel that averages 40+ years of age**
A touch of pain grillé frames the impressively broad nose of acacia blossom, mandarin orange peel, white peach and a hint of menthol. The generous proportioned, round and delicious medium weight flavors possess solid mid-palate concentration as well as a seductive texture before culminating in a delicious and notably dry but not austere finish. This isn't especially complex at present though my range offers the benefit of the doubt that more depth will develop with time in bottle.
