Red Burgundy Benjamin Leroux 2023 Volnay Premier Cru Les Mitans

This wine technically comes from a single plot in L’Ormeau, which is allowed to be labelled as Les Mitans. The vines were planted in two stages but are on average around 50 years old. This is archetypal Volnay, brimming with pretty red fruit and floral touches. The tannic structure is lovely, like a long, chalky layer that coats the palate and stretches the wine to a long, refreshing finish. This is a wine that is easy to love.
