Information
About the producer

Established in 1868 in the small commune of Auxey-Duresses, the Leroy House owes its success to Henry Leroy, who started working in the family business in 1919. In 1942 he purchased 50% of the Romanée-Conti vineyards, which the family still owns with the Villaine family. Since 1955, his daughter Marcelle - who is nicknamed Lalou - is at the head of the domain. She relates that her father poured a drop of Musigny wine on her lips at her birth. Between 1985 and 1989, in order to produce the best wines, she bought the vines from the Noëllat and Philippe Rémy domains with the help of her Japanese importer to found the Domaine Leroy. Today Lalou Bize-Leroy is at the head of an extraordinary wine property of 22.4 hectares covering 24 appellations. No compromise for Leroy wines: biodynamics and extremly small yields. If the wines of the trading house are very popular, the wines of the domain are cult since they embody, with the DRC, what's best from Burgundy. The reputation of the domain has gone way beyond the French boundaries and it is now extremely difficult to get hold of one of these prestigious bottles.

About the wine

If there’s one domain that needs little introduction, it’s Domaine Leroy. A veritable legend in the wine world represented by its owner Lalou Bize-Leroy, this estate stands out for its biodynamic agriculture and meticulous vinifications, creating wines that are coveted across the world.
The Pinot noir used to make this Vosne-Romanée thus enjoyed ideal growing conditions in marl and chalk soil as well as the semi-continental influence of an oceanic climate.
In the glass this wine has a nice, ruby colour, and it gives off notes of red and black fruits (blackcurrant, raspberry, cherry, redcurrant), spices, violet, and white pepper. In time, it will also develop hints of leather and roasted notes. This wine has a character of its own with a certain power expressed through its firm tannic structure. We recommend letting this wine age in the cellar for at least five years before tasting, as it can be a little austere in its youth. Fans of game dishes will serve this cuvée with tender meat. Otherwise, we recommend a dish involving mushrooms, or maybe a truffle risotto.
