Benjamin Leroux, Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru, 2022
Charmes-Chambertin is the most seductive of Gevrey's grand crus, and in Benjamin Leroux's hands that charm is delivered with real precision. Leroux spent fifteen years running Domaine Comte Armand before launching his own house in 2007, and he's now one of the Cote d'Or's most respected growers and micro-negociants, prized for pure fruit, silky texture, and a light hand with oak. Charmes sits on gentle, gravelly slopes sheltered by woods to the north, and it tends to open earlier and more generously than its sterner neighbors up the hill. This is a Pinot Noir of perfume and finesse, a grand cru you can actually enjoy while you wait for the rest of the cellar.
