Served blind, this bottle of 2006 Bienvenue-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru from Domaine Leflaive was a big disappointment. Color alone raised my alarm - way too deep considering its age. The nose was clearly showing excessive oxidation, whilst the palate had a pleasant waxy texture, but was scuppered by a sense of flatness and enervation. It's the kind of expensive white Burgundy that has put off many of its most ardent and loyal admirers from buying and cellaring the wine that they love. Caveat emptor.
