"

Tutto bene, presentazione impeccabile, peccato che invece gli autori possano aver inserito nel sacro testo una presentazione così inesatta , ambigua e disinformante su uno dei Domaine più prestigiosi del pianeta, leggete qui :

LEROY, Domaine

"Azienda vitivinicola borgognona di Meursault , nel dipartimento della Cote d'Or. Eccezionale Maison de Négoce fondata nel 1868, comproprietaria del Domaine de la Romanée Conti dal 1942, dispone di 23 ettari di vigneti, tra i quali spiccano nove prestigious grand cru (including red, Richebourg Grand Cru AOC Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru AOC, and white Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru AOC) and eight premier cru, among which we mention the Meursault Premier Cru AOC Genaivrieres. The Domaine is run by volcanic Lalou Bize Leroy since 1989 that practice biodynamic cultivation with wonderful quality results. Wine rare and dear. "

Now, who knows how things really are already'll be smiling, but not wanting to take anything for granted, like thinking that everything written on a book or on the web is true, however, will be to clarify that:

If you indicate the title of the Domaine Leroy, we should not identify it as a maison de Négoce which is something different, which actually exists but is called Leroy knows and is involved in other things rather than cultivation of biodynamic vineyards. The Domaine is located in Vosne Romanée and Meursault. In Meursault, indeed, to be precise in Auxey Duresses is Négoce de la maison.

The Domaine de la Romanée Conti is not co-owned by the Domaine Leroy, Madame Leroy and the DRC share their streets for about 20 years. And it could still be, having been founded in the period in which the ownership of the family was leaving the DRC.

The Domaine has actually 8 premier cru, all in red and not a Meursault Premier Cru Genaivrieres.

hope that there are other cards like this in the work and the notorious editor of the book, Paul Rose, was able to better control the thousands of information in 760 pages thick.
