Benjamin Leroux Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Petite Chapelle 2023

$565.00

Region: Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Variety: Pinot Noir
Vintage: 2023

The Wine
Just below Clos de Bèze, Petite Chapelle yields a deep, resonant Gevrey of dark fruit, spice and firm mineral drive. Leroux’s 2023 is powerful yet composed.

Cellared Says
A serious 1er Cru with outstanding cellar potential. Decant young or cellar for 10–15 years. Drink 2028–2040.

Wine Reviews
“Medium ruby, with a discreet elegance to the nose, which is what this plot gives. Always discreet, agrees Ben, but it has something to say – as indeed you do find towards the back of the palate where the fruit tightens up to provide some grip. Almost all destemmed. Drink from 2031-2037. Tasted Oct 2024.
