The Leflaive Leflaive's 2006 Saint-Aubin La Chatenieres proved rich, mouth-filling, and enveloping; slightly marked by its share of new wood; subtly oily in texture; and with piquant nuttiness, chalk dust, and refreshing lime in the finish. It will be well worth enjoying at least through 2010.
While I did not have occasion to taste 2006 wines at his establishment, the handful of wines from Olivier Lefalive that I tasted as samples stateside included some decent values in the context of today's white Burgundy.
