This is an excellent expression of Burgundy's terroir, crafted by one of the most talented and highly regarded winemakers in the region, Benjamin Leroux. This wine is a beauty and showcases the subtle nuances found in Burgundy's Pinot Noir, particularly from the esteemed Côtes de Beaune region, where Leroux focuses much of his work. The nose has loads of bright red fruit especially raspberries and strawberries with subtle rose petal hints and just a little spiciness to the long, fresh, accomplished finish.

"I'm really pleased with how this wine has ended up. It started from a really good place with a lovely softness to the fruit, which was naturally sweet and easy. A couple of years in bottle has seen it develop into a silky Pinot with good length and juicy structure." - Benjamin Leroux, Winemaker.
