The 2022 Benjamin Leroux Blagny 1er Cru La Pièce Sous Le Bois is a beautifully refined Premier Cru Burgundy from one of the Côte de Beaune’s most respected producers. Sourced from high-altitude limestone slopes above Meursault, this rare Blagny Pinot Noir combines the generosity of the 2022 vintage with remarkable freshness, minerality and elegance. Benjamin Leroux’s meticulous winemaking allows the vineyard’s unique character to shine, producing a wine of purity, finesse and ageing potential.

The nose offers red cherry, wild raspberry and violet aromas, while the palate is silky and vibrant with layers of cranberry, red berries, subtle spice and fine limestone-driven minerality. Fresh acidity and polished tannins carry the wine through a long, elegant finish.

Ben’s Recommendation:
A sophisticated and beautifully balanced Burgundy that showcases the elegance of Blagny. Perfect with duck, roast quail, mushroom dishes or veal. Enjoy from now with a decant or cellar through 2040+ for added complexity.

About the region

Burgundy

Burgundy, or Bourgogne, runs north to south through eastern France, from Chablis through the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune to the Mâconnais. Almost everything here is Pinot Noir or Chardonnay, grown on small parcels called climats that have been mapped for centuries and ranked from regional and village wines up to Premier Cru and Grand Cru. The result is wine of unusual precision: the same grape, a few hundred metres apart, tasting unmistakably different.
