The fact that Benjamin Leroux has rapidly become one of Burgundy’s brightest stars shouldn’t come as a surprise. When someone enrolls in viticultural school at the age of 15 before being named technical director of Comte Armand at 24, the writing’s on the wall. Even so, his rapid rise to fame since launching his own domaine in 2007 has been eye-opening. Try this White Burgundy, and you’ll understand the hype.

Here's what you should know about it:

This wine is made with organic grapes from the village of Auxey-Duresses.
Auxey-Duresses borders Meursault, and in the right hands, offers a similar style at a fraction of the price. These are the right hands.
2018 was a warm vintage, but Leroux’s vineyards are in relatively cool areas, leading to a textured white wine that’s crisp, fresh, and a bit salty.

Things we actually said...

“Benjamin Leroux is one of the most exciting young producers in Burgundy, and Auxey-Duresses is arguably the region’s best source of value. Combine the two, and you get a wine that’ll cost twice as much a few years from now.”

— Christine Collado, Parcelle Wine
