Benjamin Leroux

“Benjamin’s whites have been consistently fine over the years, but in 2023 I was particularly struck by the quality of his reds. He seems to have read the vintage just right, to make wines with classy fruit and purity, with enough structure to have some ageing potential.”
- Jasper Morris MW

Benjamin Leroux is widely considered to be one of the most gifted and knowledgeable wine growers in all the Côte d’Or. Born and bred in Beaune, Leroux has always been considered a prodigy, studying at the Lycée Viticole in Beaune from age 15 and taking the reins at the esteemed Domaine Comte Armand when he was just 24. Leroux would stay at Comte Armand for fifteen vintages, while simultaneously launching his eponymous négociant operation in 2007.
