September 7, 2017 - I have had this wine many times since it was first released. The wine has declined a lot. It has the leroy perfume but the fruit is drying up with a bitter aftertaste. Over the peak. For people who are chasing this wine at >800usd now in auction, it is absurd and unwise.

We blinded the wine. 4 people called it a 04 bourgogne including me. If you want to try a 04 leroy now, Gevrey is the best in relative term.

Had some good and some that really declined.
Not worth more than release price anyway.
