Benjamin Leroux, Savigny 1. Cru Les Hauts Jarron, 2023

Benjamin Leroux’s Savigny 1er Cru Les Hauts Jarron 2023 is a refined Burgundy that highlights the delicacy, precision, and quiet depth Savigny-lès-Beaune can deliver in top vineyard sites. Sourced from a premier cru parcel, it reflects both the character of its terroir and Leroux’s reputation for crafting transparent, finely balanced wines with a distinctly modern touch rooted in classic Burgundian tradition.

Tasting Notes
Expect a bright, youthful ruby color in the glass. The bouquet typically leans toward fresh red berries, wild cherries, rose petals, and subtle earthy spice, with a gentle mineral edge that adds lift and definition. On the palate, the wine should be elegant and finely structured, with vibrant red fruit, supple tannins, and lively freshness balanced by a savory, slightly saline undertone. The finish is likely to be persistent and graceful, with good development potential over the next several years as the wine gains complexity and texture.

Production
Les Hauts Jarron is a premier cru site in Savigny-lès-Beaune, a commune known for producing Pinot Noir with perfume, energy, and finesse rather than sheer power. The vineyard’s elevated position and Burgundian limestone-rich soils help shape a wine with freshness, tension, and aromatic precision. Benjamin Leroux is known for attentive vineyard work and low-intervention vinification, allowing site expression to remain at the forefront.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for roast duck, herb-crusted lamb, grilled salmon, mushroom dishes, or classic Burgundy fare such as coq au vin. Serve slightly cool, ideally around 15–17°C, and decanting for 30–60 minutes can help the wine open up if enjoyed in its youth.

Producer
Benjamin Leroux is one of Burgundy’s most respected modern producers, widely admired for his meticulous approach and his ability to capture terroir with clarity and finesse. After building his reputation through work in some of the region’s top vineyards, he established his own domaine and has since become known for wines that combine purity, precision, and elegance across a range of appellations.
