Default TN Leflaive 2005

as the temp just hit 26C on our terrace, I opened my first bottle of
Leflaive Meursault 2005. with quiche, scotch eggs and rocket salad.

pale straw, bright, muted nose with some butter and ginger, wonderful
balance some fruit and spicy aftertaste, drinking well now, but try again
6/12. Would even stand up to a Thai meal.

OT. our roses are coming into their first flush and as church bells sound
across the fields, middle England in June can be a heaven on earth, ( can
also be hell on earth)
