Really beautiful aromatics coming from the whole clusters. I agree with Burgundy Al on the 94 point nose. But the palate came close. It was really elegant, lifted, with a perfect balance between sweet fruit and acidity, with an almost minty, floral phenolics in the background. Just lovely.

Drank at 97, 2000 tasting at Riccardo. Great spice, earth and black cherry. Without a doubt, the wine of the night with the '01 Meo CV showing more density, but lacking the balance and complexity.

200 Burgundy Grand Crus from vintage 2000, 4-day blind tasting (Singapore): Strong Maggy note. Fully maderised.

This is very elegant and lacks of power.
2000 is an elegant vintage, good for Burgundy wine but if one expected too high then may be disappointed very easy.
I also expected more due to the timing of drinking. This wine has everything, nice things. It's good to drink after meal with good friends.
By the way, I prefer 1998, 1999 and 2002.

Burg Dinner, Mostly Meursault Charmes and Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru (Sepia - Chicago IL): Sensational perfumed aromas to start with classically "Leroy" styled aromas. Unfortunately not as "Leroy" on the palate with very ripe red and black fruit showing a slightly muddy character and very advanced finish. "94 point" nose and "84 point" palate.
