What a disappointment. Bottle was in great shape, wine was not flawed in any way. Typical Leroy floral nose, but the fruit was too extracted, almost medicinal. Little complexity in the mid palate with a short finish. Did not improve appreciably over 2.5 hours.

Medium red in color, typical Leroy floral nose with slight earthy tones. Very fragrant, ready and starting to develop tertiary flavors. Not very complex but a perfectly mature overachieving village level wine. The kind of wine that you can finish a bottle by yourself in no time.

consumed with H and JNJ. Slight staining around cork but no ullage. Small sediment retained in punt. Bright cleaer red wine. Restrained nose chiefly fruit and no 'farmyard' A delicate fruit dominated palate, not very rich and evolving all the time. Has years to run and I still have another bottle!

still quit fruity. Darker shorter finish but still very friendly. Mature but likely won't improve further
