Benjamin Leroux Volnay Rouge 2021

Tasting Notes

Natural cork. There is no La Gigotte this year, so the 2021 blend was drawn from younger vines in the 1er Cru Mitans, along with Les Grands Poisots, a village lieu-dit that borders Pommard. There was just a pinch of whole bunch this year, with Leroux again picking out the best-looking bunches at the sorting table. Such a pretty wine, perfumed and aromatic. The tannins are gentle and carefully enveloped in the voluptuous texture. Quite delicious. There’s no denying that Leroux is a master of this village, and once again this is a terrific release. - Importer Note
