2023 Benjamin Leroux - Bourgogne Blanc (750ml)
This is not your average Bourgogne Blanc. Leroux draws almost entirely on his own Meursault holdings — parcels like Les Millerands, Sous la Velle, and Les Belles Côtes — so while it carries a modest regional label, the quality speaks clearly of its origins. A touch of fruit from the Hautes Côtes de Beaune above Pernand adds lift, and everything is fermented and raised in large-format oak and foudres. Fresh apple, white fruit, and juicy yellow fruit on a medium-bodied palate with bright acidity and a generous, balanced finish.
