A true Burgundy collector’s rarity
The Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru “Les Beaux Monts” 2009 from Domaine Leroy represents one of the purest expressions of Burgundian sensuality and equilibrium. In a radiant and generous vintage such as 2009, Lalou Bize-Leroy crafted a wine of profound elegance and harmony, capable of combining power and transparency in a uniquely compelling way.
The bouquet is seductive and multi-layered: ripe red berries, black cherry, rose petals, sweet spices, cocoa, and a touch of incense and wet earth. On the palate, the wine unfolds with precision and richness, revealing a silky texture and a vibrant freshness that elevates the intensity of the fruit. The finish is extremely long, mineral, and enveloping, with a persistence that blends aromatic sweetness and saline tension.
A Premier Cru that merges depth and grace, a perfect expression of Lalou Bize-Leroy’s savoir-faire and the unmistakable magic of the Vosne-Romanée terroir.
