I slightly preferred the RSV but this was also incredible. More red fruit and the RSV but not quite as expansive or finessed. This also feels like it is still holding back.

Leroy Dinner (Carlos - Highwood, IL): Red fruit on nose with big, burly spice. Floral hints. Same red cherry on palate along with a bit of black cherry. Big Asian spice flavors, lots of tannins and acidity. Big power comes through on quite long finish.

Wow. Dinner at l'Abbatoir with the boys. Anchored a burg flight with a 96' Leroy NSG and a 93' Ampeau Volnay. Holy 'frackin shit'!!! This was big, mouthfilling, youthful, complex and frighteningly good. Smiles and contemplative content around the table. Long, long life ahead as well - would love to revisit in 20!
