2017 Beaune, Cent Vignes, 1er Cru, Benjamin Leroux, Burgundy

Description

Benjamin Leroux is perhaps best known as a négociant, but he now owns a significant proportion of his own vineyards. He bought fruit from this 0.5-hectare parcel until eventually buying the land in 2021. The soil is light and sandy with brown gravel, giving a perfumed and pretty wine that has a light and delicate structure. Five barrels were made in 2017. The nose is spicy with open red-berry fruit, with floral aromas that follow through onto the palate. This is a pretty, pure and transparent expression of Beaune.

Drink 2024 - 2027

Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 89/100
Firm reduction presently overshadows the underlying fruit. Otherwise the supple, round and succulent medium weight flavors are tender and seductive while exhibiting a touch of youthful austerity the more complex and better balanced finish.Alan Meadows, burghound_com.com (April 2019)
