Domaine Leflaive began its modern era in 1905 when Joseph Leflaive purchased and replanted vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet during the post-phylloxera downturn, then bottled under the family name by the 1920s. His sons formalized the estate in 1973 to keep the holdings intact. Anne-Claude Leflaive took full control in 1994 and completed a full biodynamic conversion in 1997, a shift that helped define the domaine’s identity and influence across Burgundy. The estate farms about twenty-four hectares today, including grands crus such as Montrachet, Chevalier-Montrachet, Bâtard-Montrachet, and Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet, all dedicated to Chardonnay. Long fermentations in oak followed by élevage in stainless steel maintain a restrained, traditional style.
