Merchant's description
Maison Leroy is the négociant label of Burgundy legend Lalou Bize-Leroy. Though modestly classified as Bourgogne Blanc there are a great many wines of higher stature that would be put in the shade by this wine. Leroy’s wines are always impeccably balanced and exceptionally detailed, with remarkable capacity to age.
