Benjamin Leroux Charmes Chambertin GC Rouge 2021

Tasting Notes

Leroux’s Charmes-Chambertin is traditionally drawn from 0.15 hectares of vines planted in 1965. Leroux’s historic source is situated in Mazoyères-Dessus, the favoured, top part of this vineyard, near Combottes and the Grand Cru Latricières-Chambertin. This year sees the addition of a parcel of fruit from Charmes-Chambertin proper, so it’s a blend of both sections of the vineyard. As per last year, the 2021 fermented with one-third whole bunches. Tasted from barrel, it’s an extremely stylish Grand Cru, both deep and elegant, with marvellous perfume, length and powdery structure. - Importer Note
