November 13, 2010 - A bit metallic at first but mellowed after some time, but also needed to be enjoyed rather promptly. Shared at Gunnar's svenshexa.

October 10, 2010 - Saturday Dinner.: Next up an interesting comparison of 85 and 90 Leroy Musigny. Both were still too young (hard to believe). With the 85, I don't think more time will be as helpful as with the 90. Its a big wine, with a reticence that may not resolve itself. The 90 was more expressive, but not overwhelming as the vintage can sometimes be. Thick, massive, still a wine to wait on (which I don't say often for a twenty year old wine), and one which I suspect will be materially better in time.
