  September 15, 2022 - Incredibly mineral palate. Serious concentration, paired with precision.

  January 22, 2022 - Another disappointing old Leroy being borderline oxidized... :-(
  This was lacking vibrancy, complexity and depth. Really not much going on and while this was not oxidized, you could feel hint of cooked apple with a flabby texture. Right away when I saw the color I was a little worried...
  Oh well.

  June 9, 2017 - Not the best bottle I have drunk of this wine in this vintage.
  Pale lemon yellow (at least not oxydation there), med - intensity of aromas (white flower, lemon peel, red apple).
  Med body, acidity and alcohol. Flavours match the aromas in a medium intensity.
  Lacks vibrancy and nerve. It is a good bottle but nothing exceptionnal which in this case is a disapointment.

  Palate: ripe apple, lemongrass, vanilla bean, lavender, saline, lemon
  Comments: Explosive nose, great balance of fruit an acidity, long finish, drink or hold
