Tasting Notes
Expect a bright, ruby-toned Pinot Noir with an expressive, fresh-fruited profile. The nose typically opens with red cherry, wild strawberry, cranberry, and subtle floral notes, followed by hints of spice, earth, and a delicate savory edge. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and energetic, with fine tannins, lively acidity, and a precise mineral core that gives the finish length and definition. In a great vintage like 2023, it should offer immediate charm but also the structure to evolve gracefully over the next 5–10 years, gaining complexity with bottle age.

Production
Nuits-Saint-Georges sits in the Côte de Nuits, where limestone and marl soils, along with varied vineyard exposures, help produce Pinot Noir with depth, structure, and aromatic nuance. Benjamin Leroux is known for careful vineyard selection and a thoughtful, low-intervention approach in the cellar, typically favoring gentle extraction and nuanced élevage to preserve purity and balance.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for roast duck, duck breast, mushroom risotto, grilled salmon, or classic Burgundy-style dishes such as coq au vin. Serve at around 15–17°C and consider a brief decant if opened young to allow the aromatics to fully unfold.

Producer
Benjamin Leroux is one of Burgundy’s most admired contemporary winemakers, celebrated for his deep understanding of terroir and his refined, precise style. After making his name in some of the region’s most prestigious cellars, he established his own domaine and quickly earned a reputation for producing wines of exceptional purity, balance, and detail across a range of Burgundian appellations.
