A tasting with one of Burgundy's most talented winemakers
We have been huge fans of the wines of Domaine Olivier Leflaive for many many years here at Lay & Wheeler. Founded in 1984, when Olivier Leflaive left the illustrious Domaine Leflaive to set out on his own, the estate has built up a reputation for superb wines both from domaine fruit and as a négoce business.
Since 1988, the wines have been made by Franck Grux - whose name is understandably inseperable from the estate. Having worked previously at Domaine Roulot, in his role as Technical Director and Winemaker, Franck has overseen over 30 vintages of world-class winemaking at Domaine Olivier Leflaive.
We are delighted therefore to welcome Franck to London in late October, for a intimate tasting in our London tasting room providing the opportunity to not just taste a range of excellent wines, but also to learn more about the history of Burgundy over the last several decades. There are few winemakers in the region who can boast such experience, not that Franck is ever one to self-promote.
Spaces are very limited for this special tasting, so please do let us know as soon as possible if you would like to join for an evening of incredible insight into top white Burgundy.
