Lalou Bize-Leroy has an exceptional collection of great terroirs, 23 hectares of vines, mostly Premier and Grand Cru classified. She is producing some of the finest wines in the world. In the past, she co-managed Domaine de la Romanée-Conti with Aubert de Villaine.Michel Bettane, one of leading wine critics, said “Burgundy wines at his highest expression: Leroy, an uncomparable collection of wines that symbolize the whole know-how of Burgundy”.
Lalou Bize-Leroy is a pionneer in biodynamics and low yields, since more than 20 years. The average yield is very low, below 20 hectoliters per hectare.
The French Cellar has the chance and the privilege to propose two exceptional wines from Lalou Bize-Leroy.
Our sommelier Nicolas Rebut says that Vosne-Romanée Les Genaivrières, Domaine Leroy 2009 is a "great wine that I had the opportunity to taste several times in his youth and after a few years of aging. Each tasting is a surprise and an intense moment of excitement".Nuits Saint-Georges Bas de Combe, Domaine Leroy, 2007 is an exceptional wine with stunning, and astonishing palate. "A very high class Pinot Noir" according to our sommelier.
