{"product_id":"benjamin-leroux-bourgogne-blanc-2019","title":"Benjamin Leroux Bourgogne Blanc 2019","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bourgogne Blanc is a mini-Meursault this year and drawn almost entirely from Estate fruit. The vineyards are \u003cem\u003eLes Millerands\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSous la Velle\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eLes Belles Côtes\u003c\/em\u003e, with each parcel well sited on the Côte. Unlike the vast majority of Bourgogne (from the foot of the hill, and across the D974), Leroux’s vines are grown on limestone-rich terroirs below the villages level vines of Meursault, joined by some fruit from the Hautes-Côtes above Pernand Vergelesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2019 was raised in 12- and 15-hectolitre foudres and 600-litre demi-muids for 11 months before finishing its élevage in stainless steel for four months. The large-format vessels offer Leroux a natural, delicate bâttonage and create more C02, allowing Leroux to work with lower levels of sulphur. As always, this is absolutely brilliant for its level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePale colour with an attractive leesy quality, lovely lemon touch here, very attractive juicy quality through the middle, plenty of energy, avoids the heat. A mix of foudre and 600 litre barrels.
