Back in his Domaine Comte Armand days, Leroux was one of the first in Burgundy to celebrate old-vine Aligoté. Working with great, old-vine material and super-precise winemaking, this wine remains at the top of the spectrum. The key components are Leroux’s parcel of 50-year-old vines in Meursault’s Les Belles Roses climat. The vine material comes from the high-quality, low-yielding Aligoté Doré cultivar. The 2023 fermented and matured in seasoned 12-hectolitre ovals, with half in glass WineGlobes and stoneware amphora.

Reviews

“From Leroux vines. A pale lemon colour. A fine graceful bouquet, without the rusticity of some, really graceful with impressive length. Softer of course than the Aligotés of the past. In bottle end August. Drink from 2025-2027.”
87 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
“The 2023 Bourgogne Aligoté comes from Meursault. It was made one-quarter in WineGlobe, half in foudres and the rest in barrel. It is quite vibrant on the nose with orange blossom and light patisserie scents. The palate is fresh with a subtle orange rind note.”
