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.

The Les Sizies climat, located to the south-west of Beaune, enjoys an excellent reputation for producing balanced, elegant and structured wines. Set mid-slope in the southern part of Beaune, close to the Avaux climat, the Pinot Noir vines benefit from clay-limestone soils and ideal south-west exposure. After rigorous grape selection, vinification follows a low-intervention approach with spontaneous fermentation. The wine is then aged for 18 months in cask with a high proportion of new oak.
The intense ruby hue promises an expressive bouquet. The nose is lifted by aromas of black cherry, raspberry and sweet spice, enhanced by a subtle floral touch. The broad, velvety palate is supported by fine, elegant tannins. A fine balance of generous fruit and mineral freshness emerges, flowing into a long, silky and persistent finish.
