2001 Domaine Leroy Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Cote de Nuits, France
$9,900.00
From meticulously tended biodynamic vines in the iconic Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, this 2001 vintage exemplifies Domaine Leroy’s commitment to purity and site specificity. Grapes are handpicked and carefully triaged before undergoing spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in traditional open-top wooden fermenters. The extended skin contact period ensures optimal phenolic extraction, balanced by gentle cap management techniques. Following malolactic conversion, the wine is matured in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barrels, fostering complex aromatics and refined tannin structure. The result is a richly layered, elegant expression of Clos de la Roche’s distinctive terroir, marked by precision and longevity.
