the 2000 is quite enjoyable tonight

before hitting full maturity

As it often does this offers terrific quality for a villages level wine

Tastes as though it hasn’t evolved for while

the use of French oak has become more measured and the Barolos are now among the elite wines of the region in virtually every vintage

Domaine Leflaive, Bourgogne Blanc other_regions_italy the 2000 is quite enjoyable(includes some declassified villages wine). A discreet hint of wood frames wonderfully fresh aromas of pear, white peach and lavender scents. There is a really lovely underlying tension to the racy yet plump middle weight flavors that also conclude in a clean and dry finale. If this can add depth with a few years of bottle age it should make for an outstanding Bourgogne. (86 89) 2019+
