The Wine
Maison Leroy, under the stewardship of the legendary Lalou Bize-Leroy, presents the 2014 Bourgogne Rouge—a wine that transcends its regional designation. Released a year later than its successor, this vintage showcases the meticulous care and patience characteristic of Leroy's winemaking philosophy. A harmonious blend of red and dark fruits, including cherry and blackberry, is complemented by earthy undertones and a hint of spice. The palate reveals depth and structure, with firm tannins and a lingering finish that speaks to its aging potential.
“The powerful but pretty Maison Leroy Bourgogne Rouge 2014 was released a year later than the ’15 as Madame felt it needed more time. Shades of both light and dark, with coolness at the same time as brooding, dark earthy tones. Spicy cherry and blackberry fruit over gravel. Good sense of depth to the palate, which has immediate power and firm acidity to kick it along. Chewy but fine tannins frame the palate of this modern and fresh Bourgogne Rouge with substance and presence.” Masion Leroy.
Cellared says
Maison Leroy's 2014 Bourgogne Rouge exemplifies the estate's cult like following. Despite being a regional appellation, the 3 vineyards its sourced from remain a tightly held secret, this wine offers complexity and elegance that rival much higher-tier classifications. Its balance and depth make it a remarkable expression of Pinot Noir, reflecting the unique terroir of Bourgogne.
