Esprit Leflaive Le Clos Reyssier, Pouilly-Fuisse Premier Cru
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The 2020 vintage was remarkable for its quality and yield. After a mild, rainy autumn and winter, spring started early with sunny and windy weather. Despite the two-month lockdown, work in the vineyard proceeded as usual. Flowering occurred under ideal conditions in late May, suggesting an early vintage. Despite cool, rainy June weather, we anticipated a generous harvest. The summer was hot and dry, punctuated by a heat wave in August and much-needed rainfalls on August 17 and 22. Harvesting began in Puligny on August 20, yielding grapes in excellent condition with lots of juice and fruity aromas, a pleasant surprise considering the summer heat. Powerful and rich wine with fresh acidity imparting elegance. The lightly toasted finish reinforces the complexity of this wine. |
