With headquarters in Meursault, 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, all farmed biodynamically. This release is from Chambertin, the prestigious Grand Cru vineyard where Domaine Leroy owns a 0.7-hectare plot. The 1997 vintage produced healthy and ripe red wines, with a soft structure.

The 1997 Chambertin Domaine Leroy is a masterpiece of Burgundy wine, embodying the quintessence of Pinot Noir with a perfect balance between power and elegance. Aged in oak barrels, it displays a complex bouquet of red fruits, spices, and earthy undertones, with a persistent finish. The Chambertin Domaine Leroy 1997 exhibits notes of ripe cherries, blackcurrant, violets, and a hint of truffle. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a memorable finish.

The Chambertin collection from Domaine Denis Mortet represents the pinnacle of the estate's production. These wines are produced from grapes sourced from the prestigious Chambertin Grand Cru vineyard, known for its exceptional terroir and the production of deeply complex and long-lived Pinot Noir.

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.
