Benjamin Leroux Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru
Wine Information
A notably spicy nose exhibits equally elegant and cool aromas of plum, dark currant and Asian style tea nuances. There is fine intensity to the refined medium weight flavors that possess a subtle minerality on the punchy and muscular finish that is an exercise in harmony and balance.
