BACKGROUND:
Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for the beauty of its lands and the grandeur of their know-how, Burgundy is undoubtedly an emblematic region on the international wine scene. Indeed, the crus of Burgundy are single-vineyard wines that are both complex and elegant. Their prestige and subtle nuances reflect a unique classification. Thanks to the mosaic of terroirs from which they are born, Burgundy wines embody a multi-faceted expression, expressing their own unique characters while retaining a common denominator of style, elegance and delicacy.
We have selected Claude Leblanc winemaker selection for their quality, reputation and long history. It is a family-owned winery created in 1978 by Claude Leblanc, nowadays Yves Leblanc, the son, is taking over. This tasting offers a range of vintages and a mosaic of terroirs and villages
