2023 Benjamin Leroux Clos de Vougeot Petit Maupertuis, Cote de Nuits, France
$695.00
Arrives late April 2026.
Planted right up against the wall of the Clos, these vines are in their own micro-climate: they are more sheltered from wind and precipitation than their neighbors, and they benefit from the heat that radiates off the surface of the wall in the summer. Each year, these old vines produce small clusters with well-balanced maturities. Up to 25% whole-cluster, indigenous yeast fermentation, 3 weeks maceration. Aged for 18 months (50% new oak), unfined, unfiltered.
