Benjamin Leroux, Nuits-St-Georges, 2024

Benjamin Leroux’s Nuits-Saint-Georges 2024 offers a refined take on one of Burgundy’s most characterful villages, bringing precision, freshness, and a notably polished style to a appellation known for depth and structure. Crafted by one of the Côte de Beaune’s most respected modern producers, it combines classic Nuits-Saint-Georges intensity with Leroux’s trademark finesse and clarity.

Tasting Notes
Expect a bright, youthful crimson color with a refined sheen in the glass. The nose typically leans toward red cherry, wild strawberry, cranberry, and subtle floral notes, layered with spice, earth, and a delicate savory edge. On the palate, the wine is likely to be energetic and finely textured, with crisp red fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a precise mineral line that gives the finish both lift and definition. While already appealing in its youth for its balance and purity, this is a wine that should gain complexity with time in bottle. Nuits-Saint-Georges often rewards cellaring, and Benjamin Leroux’s elegant, terroir-driven style suggests a wine that can develop beautifully over the next several years, gaining savory, earthy, and floral nuance.

Production
Nuits-Saint-Georges sits in the southern part of the Côte de Nuits, where limestone and marl soils help produce Pinot Noir wines of both power and detail. Benjamin Leroux is known for a thoughtful, low-intervention approach that aims to preserve site expression, with careful harvesting and gentle vinification designed to maintain freshness, aromatic precision, and balance.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast duck, pan-seared pigeon, mushroom dishes, veal, and herb-roasted chicken, as well as earthy vegetarian plates such as lentils or wild mushroom risotto. Serve at around 15–17°C, and decant briefly if enjoying it young; a short aeration can help open the aromas and soften the structure.

Producer
Benjamin Leroux established his reputation as one of Burgundy’s most gifted and forward-thinking winemakers, first through his work at Maison Joseph Drouhin and later under his own label. Based in Beaune, he has become known for producing wines of precision, purity, and balance across top Burgundy appellations, earning strong respect for both his technical skill and his sensitive interpretation of terroir.
