DOMAINE LEFLAIVE 2012 – Puligny-Montrachet (En Primeur)
Just for reflection, you will see the same offer prices of their (very, very good!) 2011s in brackets…

Bourgogne 2012 75cl 35.00 Swiss Francs (34.00)
Puligny-Montrachet 2012 75cl 65.00 (59.00)

PREMIERS CRUS
Puligny-Montrachet Les Clavoillons 2012 75cl 85.00 (79.50)
Meursault Sous Le Dos d’Âne 2012 75cl 96.00 (89.50)
Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 2012 75cl 139.00 (129.00)
Puligny-Montrachet Les Combettes 2012 75cl 149.00 (138.00)
Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 2012 75cl 175.00 (158.00)
Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles 2012 150cl 355.00 (321.00)

GRANDS CRUS
Bienvenues Batard Montrachet 2012 75cl 289.00 (259.00)
Batard Montrachet 2012 75cl 310.00 (279.00)
Chevalier-Montrachet 2012 75cl 395.00 (348.00)

Well, the increases start modestly!

If money was no option, I’d buy Pucelles in mags every year – I’ve never yet met, or even heard of a p.oxed magnum, from anyone – even in ‘off vintages’ at Leflaive this wine excels.

It’s hard to draw conclusions on Leflaive pricing as it goes up and down like a fiddler’s elbow, but these 2012 prices are only very slighly more than was asked for their 2007s, and note that production in 2012 was about 50% of a usual year; I’m feeling that it might be churlish to complain (excessively!)…

      Hi Antoine.
      These are the merchant’s prices, not domaine…
      Cheers
