Maison Leroy Bourgogne Blanc 2016

Maison Leroy Bourgogne Blanc 2016 is a refined expression of Chardonnay from one of Burgundy’s most revered names. Crafted under the exacting eye of Lalou Bize-Leroy, it reflects the house’s uncompromising pursuit of purity, balance, and site expression, even in a humble regional Bourgogne bottling. For collectors and Burgundy lovers alike, it carries both the prestige of an iconic producer and the quiet seriousness of a wine made to overdeliver.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this 2016 Bourgogne Blanc typically shows a pale straw color with a luminous, polished sheen. The nose is likely to offer restrained but nuanced aromas of white flowers, citrus peel, green apple, and subtle lees-derived notes, with the kind of mineral tension that Burgundy fans prize. On the palate, expect a precise, elegant Chardonnay with freshness at its core, layered stone fruit, citrus, and a fine, savoury undertone, all framed by a polished texture and a long, focused finish. While already appealing, it should also reward time in bottle, gaining complexity over the next 5 to 10 years and beyond in a well-kept cellar.

Viininvalmistus
The wine comes from Burgundy, where Chardonnay thrives on limestone- and clay-rich soils that lend both vibrancy and texture. Maison Leroy is known for sourcing fruit with extraordinary care, working biodynamically and with very low yields whenever possible to preserve concentration and balance. Harvesting is carried out selectively, and the vinification approach is typically minimal-intervention, aimed at allowing the character of the fruit and terroir to remain front and center rather than masking it with heavy oak or excessive handling.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Serve this wine lightly chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to preserve its freshness and aromatic detail. It pairs beautifully with lobster, roasted poultry, creamy risotto, grilled scallops, or fine white-fleshed fish, and it can also handle richer dishes with beurre blanc or mild mushroom sauces. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a brief aeration can help if the bottle is showing especially tight in its youth.

Tuottaja
Maison Leroy is the négociant arm associated with Domaine Leroy, one of Burgundy’s most iconic and sought-after domaines. Under Lalou Bize-Leroy, the estate became synonymous with biodynamic viticulture, meticulous selection, and an almost legendary level of quality control, earning immense respect throughout the region and far beyond. The producer’s wines are widely regarded as benchmarks of Burgundy, and the most celebrated bottlings have achieved true cult status among collectors.
