Only 6 bottles shipped. Leroux started with Aux Boudots in 2015. His 0.3-hectare parcel lies on rocky soil on the upper slope, where the vines produce particularly small bunches of Pinot Fin. As a result, this parcel can handle a large percentage of whole bunch. Boudots is often referred to as the most Vosne-like of Nuits-St-George’s wines, though Leroux doesn’t exactly agree. Even though his parcel in Vosne-Romanée’s Aux Malconsorts is only a stone’s throw away, Leroux says the wines behave entirely differently in the cellar. Lalou Bize Leroy, who farms over one hectare in Boudots, echoes this sentiment in Jasper Morris’s Inside Burgundy. Indeed, Leroux regards Boudots as home to “the true character of Nuit-St-Georges”. Having said all that, this is wonderfully classy and fine Nuits—incredibly floral, seductive, spicy and long. Again, only one barrel was made.
