Anne-Claude Leflaive trialled biodynamics from 1990 and converted the celebrated Puligny-Montrachet white-wine estate fully, earning Biodyvin certification in 1998. The domaine is the most influential advocate of biodynamics among Burgundy's grand white producers.
Tip: Leflaive's Macon and Bourgogne Blanc bottlings are the affordable way into a biodynamic house better known for grand-cru Montrachet.
Like most top white Burgundy, Domaine Leflaive's wines are bottled without animal-derived fining, the unfined practice common to the region's grand whites. The biodynamic farming and minimal cellar handling make the wines suitable for vegans.
Tip: Fine white Burgundy is among the most reliably vegan wine in France because the best estates avoid fining; ask the estate to confirm the practice vintage by vintage.
