Benjamin Leroux is one of Burgundy’s most exciting and talented winemakers, known for his modern approach to winemaking while respecting the region's traditions. Benjamin Leroux's estate is classified as a "Micro-Negociant", a type of producer where he is the industry leader. This is where a winemaker purchases small allotments of grapes grown in a number of different vineyards, generally from growers who don't make their own wines, to make wine.
Benjamin Leroux began his career at the highly esteemed Domaine Comte Armand in Pommard which one of the top domaines in Burgundy, found on all top restaurant wine lists globally, where he served as the winemaker from 1999 until 2014. He was ONLY 24 years old when he took over as the domaine’s régisseur (estate manager and winemaker) an historic appointment for one so young. Benjamin is a master at delivering purity of fruit alongside a seamless texture in his wines which have only the subtlest influence of oak. He produces a vast range of wines from villages all over the Cote d'Or so there is always something to try no matter what your favourite style is.
