Description

Domaine Leroy was formed in 1988 when the legendary Lalou Bize-Leroy acquired the estate of Charles Noëllat in Vosne-Romanée and subsequently Philippe-Rémy’s property in Gevrey-Chambertin. After continuous expansion, Domaine Leroy today consists of approximately 23 hectares, including impressive vineyard holdings in nine Grands Crus and eight Premier Crus. This release comes from the premier cru Les Beaux Monts, which is located north of Richebourg and Aux Brûlées. This is the largest holding owned by Lalou Bize-Leroy with 2.61 hectares of vines. The 1989 vintage is drinking superbly now.
