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.

A great lady of Burgundy, Lalou Biez Leroy is recognised around the globe for the quality of her wines and for her domain, where the vines have been treated biodynamically for several decades. She is also recognised for her merchant activity, a project that allows her to offer fine wines at more affordable prices to an increasing audience of enthusiasts. This Auxey-Duresses is the perfect example. From parcels carefully selected by Lalou and her team, it has a delicate feel to it and an aromatic underscore worthy of the Côte de Beaune’s finest Chardonnays. This cuvée has remarkable ageing potential. You can count on thirty, forty, even fifty years…it just depends on how patient you are.
