The wine combines several village parcels with a small amount of fruit from the prestigious Premier Cru Malconsorts, bringing additional depth to its floral, red-fruited and finely structured character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVineyard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeroux controls around two hectares in Vosne-Romanée, working with parcels that include Maizières Basses, Les Violettes, Genaivrières, Les Jacquines, Au Village and Au-Dessus de la Rivière. The vineyards include mature selections of Pinot Fin, with the Maizières Basses parcel containing organically farmed vines around 60 years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYields were exceptionally low in 2024 at approximately 3hl\/ha. Only five barrels of the village wine were produced, compared with around 25 in a more typical vintage. The final blend includes 77 litres of Malconsorts Premier Cru fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Malconsorts component was aged in a WineGlobe with the stems before being incorporated into the village cuvée. Leroux’s broader cellar philosophy is parcel-specific, with each lot treated according to the vintage and terroir rather than following a fixed recipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCritic Reviews\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91\/100 — Decanter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eTasted 30 September 2025\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n“The fruit flavours open up a bit on the palate with notes of plum and peony…”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e89–92\/100 — Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eTasted October 2025\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n“A fresh purple, with a beautifully heady yet classically Vosne nose.

At 24, he became manager of Domaine Comte Armand in Pommard, where over 15 vintages he introduced organic and later biodynamic viticulture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLeroux established his own project in 2007. Working across the Côte d’Or, he focuses on careful farming and precise expression of individual terroirs. In the cellar, each parcel and vintage receives a tailored approach, with traditional barrels, larger wooden vessels, amphorae and WineGlobes used where appropriate without masking the identity of the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Benjamin Leroux\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Burgundy, Côte de Nuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vosne-Romanée\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape Variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2024 Blend Detail:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes 77L of Malconsorts Premier Cru fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 barrels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWine Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweetness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2027–2043\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Malvern Valley Liquor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50530685943896,"sku":"2380021320","price":365.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0576\/5994\/9144\/files\/2024_Benjamin_Leroux_Vosne_Romanee_750ml.png?v=1790225997","url":"https:\/\/mvliquor.com.au\/zh\/products\/2024-benjamin-leroux-vosne-romanee-750ml","provider":"Malvern Valley Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
