Tribute to the Living: Leflaive Estate

A unique approach to the world of wine In bookshops saturated with wine guides, technical accounts and family histories, this book offers a new approach: a unique, sensitive work that is resolutely "outside the box". Here, Domaine Leflaive is presented neither as a monograph nor as a traditional chronicle, but as a living experience, where emotion is cultivated as much as the vines. In Puligny-Montrachet, in the Hautes Côtes as in the Mâconnais, the estate draws its inspiration from an exceptional natural environment, patiently respected thanks to biodynamic methods. Two years of meticulous work, attention to detail, and human and artisanal alliances give rise to wines capable of leaving a lasting impression. This book reveals the intimate fabric of this alchemy: the heritage of the Leflaive family, the biodiversity that shapes the landscape, and the discreet gestures of those who work at the estate. Added to this is a unique dialogue between the land and the plate: eight creations by Michelin-starred chef Hugo Bourny, inspired by the natural plant resources surrounding the vineyards and informed by the knowledge of farmer specialist Thierry Thevenin. An invitation to understand - and feel - how a place, people and nature come together to give rise to lasting emotions. A book to be experienced as much as read.
