Les Cloux Rully 1er Cru Chardonnay
Lovely pale straw colour. Fresh, citrus nose. Pineapple, a touch of oak and vanilla on the plate, with a long buttery acidy finish. An excellent wine, typical modern and impeccably-executed — at NOA, Tallinn — 5 years ago

Olivier and Patrick Leflaive own 17 hectare, which is fairly large Domaine ownership, although all plots owned may not be large enough to bottle on their own. Meursault Poruzots is an example where they have ownership and also buy grapes, so that wine is bottled as Produit de France and not Recolte du Domaine.
Franck Grux has been winemaker since 1988; Jean Marc Boillot was winemaker from '84-'88. Grux is first cousins with Jean Marc Roulot. Grux was winemaker at Guy Roulot immediately following Ted Lemon from Littorai and preceding Jean Marc Roulot returning to family Domaine. You can find Franck Grux's own wines(he owns vines in Meursault) at the Burgundy Wine Company in NYC and Burghound does review Grux wines.
