Benjamin Leroux Meursault-Blagny Premier Cru La Pièce Sous le Bois 2023 is a high-altitude white Burgundy from a vineyard situated above the village of Blagny. This site sits at the upper limit of the slope, bordering the forest where thin, stony soils over hard limestone bedrock dictate a lean, mineral-driven profile. Leroux employs gentle pressing and fermentation in large oak vessels to preserve the 2023 vintage’s energetic acidity and floral lift. The fruit remains chiselled and precise, eschewing the broader buttery weight traditionally associated with the lower Meursault plains. Long maturation on fine lees provides a structural silkiness without masking the crystalline citrus and flinty reduction.
