Offering up aromas of plums, red berries, raw cocoa and orange rind, the 2019 Beaune 1er Cru Les Cent Vignes is medium-bodied, lively and succulent, with fine tannins and a nicely balanced, understated profile.

The 2015 Beaune 1er Cru Les Cent Vignes, a new small cuvée from Benjamin, has a punchy redcurrant, raspberry and violet-scented bouquet that has great vigor. The palate is very well balanced with saturated tannin, quite luscious for a Beaune yet still balanced and poised with a hint of dark chocolate towards the finish. There is clearly very good winemaking here and great terroir expression - a welcomed new addition to the Leroux portfolio.
