Nuits St Georges Domaine Leroy 2015

Domaine Leroy was founded in 1988 by Lalou Bize-Leroy after purchasing the estates of Charles Nöellat and Phillippe-Rémy and now consists of 21 hectares of meticulously tended vineyards, farmed according to biodynamic principles. 2015 was a high quality yet small yielding vintage and, in such circumstances, Leroy makes an assemblage of three lieux-dits (Aux Aullots, Aux Bas de Come and Lavières) labelled simply as Nuits-Saints-Georges as opposed to bottling them separately. This is a generous, expressive and full-bodied wine that will require further cellaring before entering its prime drinking window but should continue to evolve wonderfully over the next 20 years.
