Description
If you’re not familiar with Leroux, he became the technical director of Comte Armand at 24, before which he enrolled in viticultural school at 15. In other words, the writing was on the wall. His style is polished, elegant, and vibrant. Despite rapidly trending toward ‘benchmark’ status amongst people who know what’s up, his wines still offer phenomenal value for the price.
Still one of the most important cuvées here in terms of volume, containing Seuvres – 50% – and Justice and Fournoux and some from Brochon. A pretty, harmonious black cherry and cassis bouquet with light rose petal aromas. The palate is medium-bodied, offering light tannin, brisk dark berry fruit and touches of cola. Early-drinking and pleasurable.Deep, wide, a little coffee-caramel. Lots of mouth-filling presence. Small waves bring more complexity to the flavour – fine textured. This is excellent as usual!
