Score 91/100 · Drink 2021-2035, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Sep 2021

Notes of sweet berries, spices, woodsmoke, orange rind and forest floor introduce the 2019 Blagny 1er Cru La Pièce Sous Le Bois, a medium to full-bodied, lively wine that's framed by chalky tannins. As ever, this classically balanced red is one of the sleepers in Leroux's portfolio.

Score 88-90/100 · Drink 2023-2036, Neal Martin, Dec 2020

The 2019 Blagny La Piece Sous Le Bois 1er Cru was one cru that felt just a little disjointed with the oak at the time of my tasting. The palate is medium-bodied and quite sinewy on the entry, moderate in weight, with a compact finish. Once this is racked it will certainly flesh out and cohere, and my score is based on that.
