This year’s wine is drawn almost entirely from Leroux’s Estate vineyards in Meursault—including Les Millerands, Sous la Velle and Les Belles Côtes. Again, Leroux used a tiny parcel of purchased fruit from the Hautes Côtes de Beaune above Pernand-Vergelesses to add a touch of pep. There are six parcels in total, and everything matured in large casks and foudres. Unlike the majority of Bourgogne (from the foot of the hill and across the D974), Leroux’s Estate vines grow on lower slopes of the Côte, situated below the village-level vines of Meursault but on the upper side of the road.
