Gault&Millau's review
2024
94/100
A lovely, complex nose that evokes notes of toast, yellow fruit, white flowers and a more pastry-like, gourmand, round touch. Freshness asserts itself on the palate in an elegant body, balanced by a well-integrated acid framework. Intense, long finish of candied citrus, exotic fruit and viennoiserie.

Valentin Leflaive
The house has its roots in the history of the Leflaive family, guided for centuries by a love of Burgundian chardonnay and savoir-faire. But it was only recently, in 2020, that Valentin Leflaive settled in Champagne, in the prestigious Côte des Blancs appellations, and more precisely in Oger, in an authentic winery with a traditional ageing cellar dug into the chalk. The historic single-vineyard, plot-based approach typical of Burgundy is applied here, offering new interpretations. Some of the wines are matured in old Burgundy rooms that have seen Olivier Leflaive's Puligny-Montrachet grands crus age, helping to reveal the full complexity of the cuvées. On the labels, each cuvée has its own characters: while the letters express the terroir and the selection of grape variety and parcel, the numbers illustrate the base years and dosage. A modern, transparent approach.
