2019 Meursault-Blagny 1er Cru Sous le Dos d`Ane, Olivier Leflaive – Récolte du Domaine

These vines lie in a sun-catching amphitheatre adjoining Meursault 1er cru Les Perrières. When you climb the slope, you can understand why the vineyard is named “under the donkey’s back”, as the vines are sheltered to the north by a huge, long hummock of stones and trees which resemble the slumbering animal. 25% of new barrels were chosen for this wine’s ageing, and their presence is imperceptible, so well have all elements now come together. Colour is deep, green-golden, the nose being very rich and ripe. Palate is full and round, with superb fruit concentration and density, and an explosively flavourful aftertaste (for drinking 2021-2027+).
