Domaine Leflaive is Puligny’s flagship domaine. The revered winery sits between Meursault to the north and Chassagne to the south, in the heart of Burgundy’s “gold coast,” home to the world’s most renowned (and expensive) Chardonnays.
If DRC makes the best Red Burgundy in the world, then Domaine Leflaive makes the best White Burgundy in the world, it’s that simple. Every year, collecting a few bottles of anything they make is a daunting but incredibly rewarding task. The back-to-back vintages of 2020 and 2021 promise to bring those who are patient something special and no body makes age-worthy whites quite like this iconic producer.
The Mâcon-Verzé is a stunner. A seamless blend of nine different vineyards from around the domaine, it’s made in a combination of steel, cement and oak giving it a wide variety of flavor profiles. Of course, it’s got incredible length and precision and at the price today, is as good a bargain as exists at Domaine Leflaive.
Each Sampler pack comes with 3 bottles each of the following:
2020 Domaine Leflaive Macon Verze
2021 Domaine Leflaive Macon Verze

We’re nearing the end of what was a flawlessly crafted, high energy coastal Chardonnay release from one of California’s hottest spots. It’s still every bit as bright and refreshing as you could want and it hits with clean, pristine green apple fruits, pears and citrus notes with a hint of that limestone-influenced minerality. It’s a fantastic wine for all seasons, the perfect pair with mixed seafood, summer tomatoes, corn and freshly caught fish.
The 2016 vintage in Napa was nearly perfect for winemaker Kian Tavakoli (Opus One, Clos du Val). With ideal weather all throughout harvest, he crafted the Faustini Money Road Chardonnay off the famous vineyard located in the coveted Oakville AVA. The picturesque vineyard off Oakville Crossroad is platinum rated, known for its ideal combination of soil & climate and the big A list names that routinely source fruit. Kian’s Money Road Chard is still youthful despite having a few years of age, probably as a result of its 18 months of slumber in 1/4 new Oak.
92 Points (Best Buy), Wine Enthusiast – 90 Points, James Suckling
The winery could never expected their Tuscan Vermentino would become as integral as it has – even 25 years later, it’s still a key piece of the puzzle for Campo Maccione. It’s an unassuming wine with great viscosity and bright, savory flavors that way overdelivers for the price. James Suckling agreed, as did Wine Enthusiast. Suckling gave it a 90 and deemed it “an interesting take on Tuscan Vermentino.” Wine Enthusiast took it up a few notches, attaching a coveted ‘Best Buy’ designate to the wine along with a 92-point review for the wine “with a sophisticated restraint.”
The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.
