Benjamin Leroux, Meursault, La Pièce Sous le Bois, 1er Cru, 2019 - Hammonds

The 2019 Benjamin Leroux Meursault-Blagny "La Pièce Sous le Bois" 1er Cru is an exceptional, high-altitude expression of Chardonnay crafted by one of Burgundy's most naturally talented modern vignerons. An important technical quirk defines this specific vineyard: it sits high on the slope in the hamlet of Blagny, straddling the border of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet.
