Romanee St Vivant Domaine Leroy 1998

With headquarters in the municipality of Meursault, Domaine Leroy was formed in 1988 when Lalou Bize-Leroy acquired the estate of Charles Noëllat in Vosne-Romanée and subsequently Philippe-Rémy’s property in Gevrey-Chambertin. Today, Domaine Leroy owns approximately 23 hectares, including impressive holdings in nine Grands Crus and eight Premier Crus. It is the 2nd largest owner of Romanée-Saint-Vivant – after Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – with approximately 0.99 hectares of vines. The 1998 vintage is brimming with spices and herbs, layered in with silky black cherry fruit. Remarkable minerality and acidity, leading to a long finish with a lovely grip.
