One of Ben's favourites. This is one of the best areas for village-level wines in Meursault grown on high ground and from 45 year old vines. Again, this is fabulous in 2022, with brilliant drive and slate accents to reel in all the power.  

Leroux has worked with the same 0.45 hectares of vines since 2002 (pre-2007, he made it at Comte Armand). Vireuils is an east-facing, late-ripening site with pure, rocky, limestone and flint soils. Leroux’s vines, around 45 years of age, are situated in Vireuils Dessus—one of the higher sites of Meursault sitting above the renowned Les Chevalières and Rougeots lieux-dits. Aging takes place in older 300-litre barrels; there was one new barrel out of seven this year. 

From a season of contradictions. William Kelley writes, 'the 2022 vintage is proof that Burgundy hasn’t lost its capacity to surprise. How could the hottest, driest vintage since 1947 deliver wines so succulent, suave and charming?' 

Every wine critically reviewed was outstanding for its appellation. The whites offer freshness, density and the site transparency that we love from top Burgundy. While the red Burgundies purr with succulent textures, elegant tannins and appetising freshness. And although 2022 was a ripe year, the finesse and balance are extraordinary across the range. After the challenging, low-yielding 2021 season, 2022's warm, dry, and sunny conditions were a blessing for Burgundy’s vignerons. The success of season was owed to reasonable yields, cool nights and a couple of good rain events at critical periods. All factors that lead to beautiful balanced fruit with excellent vibrancy and freshness throughout.
