  Ye Paulee (Hao Noodle): 0366/2098. Sexy outward pure red and blue fruit, violet, rose petal, meaty, smoke. Stunning silkiness and layers with a focused drive forward. Exemplary Leroy RBG. 96-97

  Gorgeous nose. Somehow nuanced for Leroy. Took a couple hours to really get going on the palace. Outstanding spice and the site and vintage made for a more masculine experience. This ended up far better than the 01 DRC we had next to it but they started out pretty close.

  something wasn't quite right...which refers more to the overall drinking experience than any noticeable flaw. the wine was a bit muddled both in its clarity and its subdued aromas/flavors. enjoyable but not performing like you'd expect. bottle from an impeccable source

  Wow wow wow what a treat this is! One of my favorite vintages of burgundy. Nothing much to say, pure perfection. Maybe the nose is just a tad too weak, but the palate is 100 points

  A rare opportunity to taste Leroy Richebourg and RSV from the same vintage side by side over the course of a long dinner. This vintage allowed the wines to show the Leroy house style but also the distinctive terroir of the two vineyards. The Richebourg was rich, round and robust. Has so much going on that you just want to sip it over and over. Not as powerful as some other vintages of Lalou's Richebourg. Both wines were amazing and it was really a privilege to taste them together. Everyone loved both wines. At the end of the night, it was so hard to choose between the two (if one really needs to choose). The RSV got 4 of 7 votes from the group and the Richebourg the other three.
