Do you want the good news or the bad news? Lalou Bize-Leroy's 2010s at Domaine D'Auvenay – both white and red – are off the charts. That is the good news. The bad news is that the wines won't be released for at least a few more years. Aging white Burgundy these days requires a strong stomach but D'Auvenay is one of the few domaines where the wines actually need a few years in bottle to show well. With time, the D'Auvenay whites often blossom into extraordinary wines with few peers anywhere in the world. I also include notes on the 2010 reds, which are equally, if not more, impressive than the whites. I find the D'Auvenay 2010 reds just a bit more refined than Bize-Leroy's 2010 reds at Domaine Leroy. In any event, these remain some of the most riveting wines on the planet. The only problem is finding them.

Lalou Bize-Leroy has two fabulous Grand Cru reds sitting in her tiny cellar at Domaine D'Auvenay, on the hills outside Meursault. Bize-Leroy recently added to her holdings at D'Auvenay with purchases of small parcels in Bâtard-Montrachet and the Puligny villages vineyard Les Enseignères. Both parcels are currently farmed conventionally and will be converted to biodynamic farming, which is of course standard practice at the domaine.
