ready-improve2014 Volnay, Clos de la Cave des Ducs, 1er Cru, Benjamin Leroux

The bouquet offers brilliant, pure fruit with real energy along with a floral note of violets and dark cherries. We love this cuvée, which happily escaped the hail. This is hugely satisfying on the palate, with a fabulous long finish.

“This is definitely the best vintage I have made in white, Esays Benjamin. “The wines have great vineyard definition; I would just have loved to have made more. It is my style of vintage. EHis reds, too, have gorgeous layers of ripe fruit, so 2014 is clearly a significant success all round for Benjamin.
