Benjamin Leroux Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The Bourgogne Blanc is a mini-Meursault this year and is drawn almost entirely from estate fruit. The vineyards are Les Millerands, Sous la Velle and Les Belles CĂ´tes, with each parcel well sited on the CĂ´te. Unlike the vast majority of Bourgogne (from the foot of the hill, and across the D974), Leroux's vines are grown on limestone-rich terroirs, situated below the villages level vines of Meursault. There is also a little bit of fruit from Vosne-RomanĂŠe. âRacked to tank in July, from foudre and 600 litre barrels. Almost all the grapes come from around Meursault. Excellent balance here with a line of concentration through the middle. Perfectly judged ripeness, more in white fruit. Textbook example, just a little oak toast but the fruit is the driver.â Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy |
