Benjamin Leroux Pommard 2022

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeBeaune
Organic Biodynamic

  "A powerful mid purple, with a bouquet to match. All in dark berry fruit but with a slightly muscular quality. Much more generous on the palate, fills out extremely well, covering the framework. Perfectly judged oaking too.” - Jasper...

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeNuits
Organic Biodynamic

Benjamin Leroux Meursault 2022

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeBeaune
Organic Biodynamic

  "On its finings, the village Meursault is blended from lower slope vineyards plus Bois de Blagny just under the forest. Elegant white fruit, a mix of apple and pear, displaying more body weight on the palate. The Meursault retains good acidity as...

Benjamin Leroux Gevrey-Chambertin 2022

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeNuits
Organic Biodynamic

  "Aged in single and double barrels for the first year, 15% new wood, then racked to foudre. An even and charming purple. The bouquet is delicious, half southern end (strawberries) half Brochon (richer fruit) together makes a great blend, with...

Benjamin Leroux Volnay Premier Cru Les Mitans 2021

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeBeaune
Organic Biodynamic

  “Half a crop, 6 barrels made. Once again this is paler in colour. A pretty elegant bouquet, à la Volnay. Not huge in volume, a bit of strawberry, just enough fruit to reach the back, but one of the more delicate wines of the vintage,...

Benjamin Leroux Savigny-les-Beaune 2021

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeBeaune
Organic Biodynamic

  "The bouquet is a little more pronounced in fresh raspberry fruit, pleasing rather than massive. Very stylish, with a good fruit acid balance. A fine and balanced Savigny without rusticity." - Jasper Morris   "The lion’s share...

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeBeaune
Organic Biodynamic

  "There is no La Gigotte this year, so the 2021 blend was drawn from younger vines in the 1er Cru Mitans, along with Les Grands Poisots, a village lieu-dit that borders Pommard. There was just a pinch of whole bunch this year, with Leroux again...

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeNuits

[SOLD-OUT] Benjamin Leroux Volnay Premier Cru Clos de la Cave des Ducs 2020

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeBeaune
Organic Biodynamic

  "One of the darker purple colours, and the nose shows a certain concentrated ripeness, not quite as complete as Santenots in terms of fruit volume, but it has retained its usual elegance and length. Some whole bunch suggestion, though Benjamin...

Region: France- Burgundy CotedeNuits
Organic Biodynamic

  “One third whole bunch vinification to keep it lively. Perfumed notes on a very pretty clear purple colour. This starts discreetly but builds very well, with quite a savoury touch at the finish and plenty of tannins but they are properly...
