Information
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.
Maison Leroy wines are produced with great attention to detail, following traditional methods and with a deep respect for Burgundy’s unique terroir.
In the glass, this 100% Pinot Noir Volnay reveals a bright ruby hue with garnet reflections. The nose offers complexity and refinement, combining aromas of red fruits such as cherry and raspberry with hints of gentle spices and undergrowth. Nuances of undergrowth, sweet spices and truffle develop with aeration. On the palate, this wine is extremely elegant and beautifully structured. It offers a delightful fruity intensity with refined and smooth tannins. The balance of fruit and acidity is perfect, enhancing the velvety texture. The finish is persistent and harmonious, delivering notes of ripe fruit, liquorice and a subtle mineral touch.
This Volnay is the perfect match for roasted poultry, mushroom-based dishes or mature cheeses such as Brie or Camembert.
