With all of the influence of the same soil, same light, same vine positions as Chambolle-Musigny, Leclerc’s Les Bon Batons is not just village level quality- we’re talking 1er Cru quality. With rich, red-fruit flavors, a backbone of acidity, strength, power, tannins- this is French Burgundy after all! We’re talking 100% Pinot Noir, the real deal, collectors run after- at a price you can enjoy today.
Philippe LeClerc Description
Philippe Leclerc butts the mold of the Burgundy winemaker and certainly has created his own path. He forgoes the more conservative uniform blue blazer, shirt and tie, hardly cares about ratings, and is not a promoter. At the age of 13, Philippe left school to work in the vineyard with his father. His family has owned land in Gevrey-Chambertin for over a hundred years so he grew up surrounded by vines. Philippe produced his first vintage in 1979 and has developed a loyal following, justifiably. Philippe Leclerc pulls off magnificent Pinot Noirs in the Côte d’Or.
