2024, Maison Benjamin Leroux, VOSNE-ROMANÉE, Village

From Flagey Echezeaux and Vosne Romanee (and some Malconsorts this year).

5 barrels were made, including 77 litres of Au Dessus des Malconsorts. A fresh purple, with a beautifully heady yet classically Vosne nose. Excellent energy, useful tannins, less obvious acidity, but overall a charming Vosne. Drink from 2029-2035.

The 2024 Vosne-Romanée Village includes the fruit from Malconsorts that was aged in a WineGlobe with the stems. It has a touch of dark chocolate on the nose and plenty of slightly musky red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fluid tannins, quite peppery in style, gentle grip with a cohesive and quite persistent finish.
