bottle that my buddy carried back from Japan. Not correct showing, soy sauce and burnt, with a pruney coffee like finish. Probably suffered from heat somewhere in its lifespan. The 99 I had end of last year was quite a different story; excellent, pure and youthful.

Perfect fill with typical Leroy soaked/moldy cork, which is in excellent condition. Deep garnet.
Beautiful and well balanced Bourgogne. Nose of fresh strawberries and deep red fruit. Palate shows no heat. Well integrated silky tannins. Some sauvage. Overall a great expression of Pinot that opens the door for the better wines.

Last bottle of two! Still alive, has plenty of dark fruits, iron, warm baking spice, pretty red cherries and raspberries on the nose fruit wise. Slight hints of fresh leather and roast meats staring to creep in but still miles away from being called tertiary. Has aged very gracefully compared with its younger sibling! At its peak, will likely hold here for at least another 5 years with a cool cellar.

Ingen dårlige flasker av 5 konsumert. Denne mangler noe av de svale eucoluptustonene noen av de andre flaskene har hatt. Flott moden fruktighet. M intens. Jord, tobakk, jern. Krydder og blå plommer. Flott nese. M fyldig. M+friskhet. M tannin. Luftig munnfølelse. Moden frukt i munn. Løv, plomme. Super BR.
