This high-grown wine is a favourite among followers of this producer (including us). 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. This is one of the best areas for village-level wines in Meursault. Aging takes place in older 300-litre barrels; there was one new barrel out of seven this year. Again, this is fabulous in 2022, with brilliant drive and energy to carry the power.
