Benjamin Leroux Corton Rouge Grand Cru 2021

Stocks of this incredible wine are scarce, Benjamin Leroux produced just a single barrel of his 2021 Corton Grand Cru, blink and you'll miss it. The Craftsmanship here is profound, from start to finish the wine is deeply complex with luscious dark fruit, delicate floral nuance and heady spice. The oak is restrained but assured, the tannins are velvety, fresh and vibrant, the acidity is pin point accurate. The fruit concentration means the wine is open and inviting even now in it's relative infancy but cellar time will see further layers of development. This is a masterpiece.
