Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brûlées Leroy SA 2015

The wine

A premier cru from the Vosne-Romanée appellation, this wine expresses the most beautiful secrets of Pinot Noir. A dry wine in its youth with powerful characteristics and ripe fruit, but already charming with its elegant tannins and mineral notes. This wine, produced following biodynamic principles, will be light on the palate after some years in the cellar. It has a complex bouquet of fruity and spiced aromas.

The legendary Leroy house in Auxey-Duresses was created by François Leroy in 1868. At the beginning of the following century, Henri Leroy contributed greatly to making these wines famous, and his daughter, Lalou Bize-Leroy, took over in 1971. Moreover, this icon of Burgundy made itself renowned by buying the Domaine Charles Noëllat to create its own domain. The Leroy family is also co-owner of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti with the Villaine family. The wines of the Leroy house have an exemplary quality. No doubt this is the greatest Burgundy wine. The grapes are meticulously selected; they must come from at least responsibly cultivated vines. The winemaking and maturing are carried out with as much care as in the domain that produces exceptional wines.
