Description

Domaine Leroy was founded in 1988 by Lalou Bize-Leroy after purchasing the estates of Charles Nöellat and Phillippe-Rémy and now consists of 21 hectares of meticulously tended vineyards, farmed according to biodynamic principles. This wine comes from the climat of Aux Combottes, which is the southernmost Premier Cru in Gevrey-Chambertin, bordering the Grands Crus of Latricières-Chambertin and Clos de la Roche. The 2007 release was reviewed by Decanter as follows," Ripe and positive on the nose, with delicious summer pudding fruit. Fat and ample, with a very good follow through. This is clearly the best of the Leroy first growths."
