Maison Leroy Beaune Premier Cru Pertuisots 2012

This Premier Cru Beaune shows excellent balance with firm tannic structure and layered flavors of ripe cherry, forest floor, and mixed berries. While praised for its classic Burgundian character, some may find the structure needs more time to soften.

A luminous garnet hue introduces this Beaune Premier Cru, offering a bouquet of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and a whisper of forest floor, underscored by a delicate floral lift. The palate is a masterclass in balance, with silky tannins and a vibrant acidity that frames the fruit beautifully. Subtle notes of clove and anise emerge, adding layers of complexity to the mid-palate. The finish is long and elegant, with a mineral edge that speaks to its terroir. This wine exemplifies the finesse and depth characteristic of Burgundy’s esteemed Premier Cru vineyards.
