Note di degustazione
The 2022 Blagny la Piece Sous Le Bois 1er Cru has a lively nose, black cherries, bilberry fruit, and great tension and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fleshy and quite smooth, with red cherries and a pinch of black pepper towards the finish. I prefer the nose to the mouth at the moment, but that might change.

Energetic mid purple, with a pure and high-class bouquet, quite tightly wound here, a darker style of raspberry, a good balance between fruit and acidity. A middleweight, attractive pinot.
Benjamin Leroux is a something of a specialist in red Blagny – one of the few still producing this appellation; his results make us want to taste more. The wine has a silky floral note to the bright black cherry fruit aromas, with a saline minerality underpinning the flavours. On the initial attack, the wine is approachable and inviting; with a bit of time in the glass, one sees that there is no lack of tannic grip. In all, this is an exquisite result.
