Mushroomy and a little soy on the nose. Soft, supple and weighty body, with some muddled fruit, mild spice and nice tertiary notes. Finishes with very fine tannins and balanced acids. Really nice.

Winestreet Does Leroy (WA Frost, St. Paul): Slight Band-Aid and VA on the initial nose. Light rose/tea color. Concentrated, highly pitched red fruit. Layers of cherries, minerals, and earth. Long finish with fully resolved tannins. Mature and drinking beautifully.

Winestreet Tastes an Abundance of Leroy: The color is a pale red. It is cloudy and has big chunks of sediment due to service errors. The nose is a delightful expression of sour cherry, mushroom, barnyard, and earth. There is a slight band-aid element but not enough to be distracting. The wine is just barely mid-weight in the mouth but packs a ton of flavor. I get more sour red cherry mixed with watermelon. Some mineral and funky elements augment the fruit flavors nicely. This wine has perfect balance finish with decent intensity and length. Very enjoyable.
