Crushed Black Berries, Dried Rose, Fine Spice, and Silky Côte de Nuits Poise

The 2021 Esprit Leflaive Nuits-Saint-Georges is a refined, beautifully transparent Pinot Noir from Domaine Leflaive’s boutique project. Sourced from choice parcels including Les Poisets and La Charmotte, it shows seductive aromas of dark cherries, crushed blackberries, sandalwood, and floral spice. Medium-bodied and seamless, it pairs pure dark fruit with fine-grained, velvety tannins and energetic cool-vintage freshness, delivering an exceptionally poised, mineral-etched finish.

Terroir & Domaine Craft

  • Historic Old-Vine Climats: Sourced from prime clay-limestone parcels strewn with pebbles, including the revered climat of *Les Poisets* (situated directly down-slope from the iconic 1er Cru Les Saint-Georges) alongside *La Charmotte*, with vines planted in 1938 and 1958. This terroir marries Nuits-Saint-Georges structure with remarkable aromatic delicacy.
  • Haute Couture Artisanal Craft: Managed with Domaine Leflaive’s uncompromising biodynamic standards and vinified with measured whole clusters. The wine is matured for 15 months in French oak barrels (around 25% new) followed by 3 months settling in stainless steel, achieving fine-grained tannins, fruit clarity, and seamless textural poise.

Highlights

  • 100% Pinot Noir from historic old-vine parcels in Nuits-Saint-Georges (planted in 1938 and 1958).
  • Crafted by the esteemed winemaking team of Domaine Leflaive under the boutique Esprit Leflaive label.
  • A classically taut, mineral-focused 2021 Burgundy; prime drinking now through 2035+.

Tasting Notes

Deep ruby in color with bright reflections, it opens with pure, alluring aromas of dark cherry, crushed blackberry, and wild strawberry, accented by dried rose petals, sandalwood, and gentle exotic spice. The palate is medium-bodied and silky, delivering a supple core of dark berries carried by fine-grained, polished tannins and vibrant acidity that leads into a persistent, tactile, and mineral-driven finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve at 15–17°C in wide Burgundy glassware.
  • Decanting: Decant for 30 to 45 minutes if opening young. Best enjoyed from 2026 through 2036+.
