Charmes-Chambertin 1989 - Léonce de Valleroy

Presentation of the Léonce de Valleroy house

A now-defunct trading house, Léonce de Valleroy produced carefully selected vintages in the 1980s. Its bottles, made from Burgundy Grands Crus, have become rare on the market, with a fine reputation for their finesse.
