Domaine Leroy was formed in 1988 when Lalou Bize-Leroy acquired the estate of Charles Noëllat in Vosne-Romanée and subsequently Philippe-Rémy’s property in Gevrey-Chambertin. Today, Domaine Leroy owns approximately 23 hectares, including impressive holdings in nine Grands Crus and eight Premier Crus. It is the second largest owner of Richebourg – after Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – with approximately 0.78 hectares of vines. 2009 was a particularly good vintage for red Burgundy, producing well-structured wines with rich, luscious fruit.

The 2009 vintage of Richebourg Domaine Leroy, despite its damaged label, represents a stellar year for Burgundy wines, showcasing an exceptional balance of richness, acidity, and tannic structure. This wine is a testament to the domaine's philosophy of low-intervention winemaking and meticulous attention to detail, from vine to bottle. The 2009 Richebourg Domaine Leroy offers a mesmerizing bouquet of ripe cherries, blackberries, violets, and subtle hints of underbrush and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with a velvety texture and a complex layering of dark fruit, earthy tones, and a lingering, elegant finish.

The Richebourg collection from Henri Jayer encompasses some of the most prestigious and exquisite Pinot Noir wines in the world, sourced from the esteemed Richebourg Grand Cru vineyard in the heart of Burgundy's Vosne-Romanée. These wines are celebrated for their depth, complexity, and remarkable aging potential.

Domaine Leroy is one of Burgundy's most esteemed and celebrated wine producers, known for its rigorous viticulture and commitment to biodynamic farming practices. Under the leadership of Lalou Bize-Leroy, the domaine has achieved a status akin to legend, with an unrivaled pedigree for crafting Pinot Noir of extraordinary depth, complexity, and longevity.
