1996 Domaine Leflaive Bienvenues Bâtard Montrachet Grand Cru
PREMOX
Many drinkers didn't know what premox was, hopefully I can give a crash course. In short, premox = premature oxidation, the cause was unknown up till today. Any white burgundies produced prior to 95 was relatively free of premox. Main characters of premox were baked apple on the nose and palate, they tasted more advanced and cooked.
Such was the case with this bottle although it was not entirely premox. Nose of sugarcane and baked apple. Palate was too cooked and advanced to enjoy. A pity.
