In bottle, Leflaive's 2015 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Folatieres has found reserves of tension and precision that belie its buxom showing from barrel, opening in the glass with a pure bouquet of white peach, stone fruit pits, confit lemon, spring flowers, pastry cream and a discrete framing of new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, layered and complete with impressive harmony and a long, classy finish. Elegant, harmonious and youthfully reserved, this classic Folatières should really hit its stride after five years in bottle. Matured in 20% new oak and bottled under Diam 30. ~ (92) William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 2-28-2018

Pale, bright yellow. Riper and more open-knit on the nose than the Combettes, displaying lovely floral lift to its yellow fruit and spicy oak flavors. The smoothest of these 2015s to this point, showing a restrained sweetness and ripe framing acidity to its peach and pineapple flavors. A stony underpinning gives this very suave wine an impression of power to go with its balance. Tightens up on the end, but I suspect the Combettes will enjoy a longer life in bottle, as this wine seems to be lower in acidity. ~ (92) Stephen Tanzer, Vinous 9-1-2017

A riper but still quite fresh nose displays notes of white peach, floral, citrus and a whiff of the exotic. Yet again there is excellent volume to the sappy mouth coating flavors that also exude evident minerality on the lingering and well-balanced finish that isn't quite as firm or complex. Still this is certainly promising and should reward mid-term cellaring. ~ (93) Allen Meadows, Burghound 6-1-2017

Super-charming on the nose and wonderfully clean and energetic. Some warmth and ripeness without any heaviness. Racy and with lime fruit and masses of juice. Quite a different texture to Clavoillon – much juicier and smoother tannins. More fun! Round and the least acid of the lot. Supple. Long. ~ (17) Tamlyn Currin, JancisRobinson.com 11-8-2016
