2007 Domaine Leroy Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Vignerondes 1er Cru
International Wine Cellar | Rating: 90
Good medium red. Blacker, fresher aromas of dark cherry and minerals. Juicy, spicy and sweet on the palate, with good grip and thrust to the dark fruit flavors. This boasts very good definition and cut for 2007 and finishes persistent and aromatic, with rather suave tannins.Author: Stephen TanzerIssue: March/April 2010
"Domaine Leroy is a welcome reminder of the difference between the very good and the great." - Michel Bettane, Vins de France
Created in 1988 with the purchase of the 12-hectare Domaine Charles Noëllat in Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Leroy has become one of the most impressive and vaunted properties in Burgundy. Cultivation follows strict biodynamic parameters and the combination of old vine preservation and ultra-low yields produces fruit of unrivaled excellence. The resultant wines are masterpieces of purity, intensity and layered subtlety enhanced by an uncommonly statuesque concentration. The spectacular reviews that these wines consistently receive attest to their incredible and solid quality—they are a lynchpin in any Burgundy enthusiast's collection.
