Leroy d’Auvenay 1982" generally refers to the 1982 Maison Leroy Bourgogne Rouge "Leroy d'Auvenay", a highly collectible and rare regional Burgundy wine made from 100% Pinot Noir.
Because it was released before the official acquisition and structural founding of the modern Domaine d'Auvenay in 1988, this vintage carries unique historical significance in the lineage of the iconic Burgundian winemaker Lalou Bize-Leroy.
Historical Context Négociant Roots: The wine was selected and bottled under the family’s merchant house, Maison Leroy. Lalou Bize-Leroy notoriously selected these barrels through strict blind tastings of wines submitted by growers across the Côte d'Or.
The "d'Auvenay" Label Name: Before it became an independent estate, the d'Auvenay designation was used by Maison Leroy on specific cuvées, named after Lalou's personal farm home in Saint-Romain
The Turning Point: In 1988, Lalou purchased the plots that would form the official Domaine d'Auvenay and immediately converted them to strict biodynamic farming practices.
Wine Profile Varietal & Style: A 100% Pinot Noir regional Burgundy red wine. It is characterized by the classic, elegant, light, and highly perfumed profile typical of aged Maison Leroy regional bottlings.
