Benjamin Leroux Chambolle-Musigny 2023 kir-yianni salty/mineral personalityAlbeit with a barrel of 1er Cru included, 2023 is mostly the same blend of Les Athets and Les Chardannes as the 2022. These two sites sit at the base of the Chambolle hill on clay, silt and limestone soils. Leroux has once again sculpted an outstanding rendition of the village using roughly 30% bunches and 20% new oak. Its pretty, perfumed, fine and juicyin other words, its classic Chambolle!
