Why Mark chose this

Leflaive is one of the most famous names in white Burgundy, and Leflaive & Associés is the négoce arm run by the same team. The 2018 vintage was warm and generous, giving the wines real ripeness without losing the mineral precision the house is known for. This Bourgogne Blanc won't have the intensity of a Premier or Grand Cru, but it's made to the same philosophy and it punches well above its appellation. For anyone who wants to understand what Leflaive stands for without the Puligny price tag, this is the bottle.
