  La Paulée de New York Gala Dinner (Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers - New York NY): In 91/96/98 vertical. Slightly dirty, clearly off.

  Bottle 240/1460- Candied fruit, spice, wild herbs, dates, prunes, perfume and forrest fruit. Deep, expressive and layered. Good density and power, unlike many 96 Leroy I tried. Maybe because this is a grand cru.

  1996 Burgundy Retrospective - The Third Session (Clarity - Vienna, Virginia): Beautifully mature nose displaying ripe red fruit with a hint of black, strawberry and rhubarb tart, pomegranate, sour cherry, caramel, cinnamon, grilled cep, sap, sous bois and limestone. There is a hint of stem/green which is interesting. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of concentrated red fruit, rich and unctuous, bright acidity, strong mineral and a long sweet red fruit driven finish with a hint of caramel and sous bois at the end. It is clearly expressing the concentrated Leroy style and the structured vintage character.

  Winefields Pre-Sale Tasting and Lunch (Wijnkasteel Genoels-Elderen, Riemst, Belgium): From the Wijnmakelaarsunie Museum Collection. Much more lively and youthful colour than the previous two wines; hugely impressive on both nose and palate, concentrated, with a lovely sauvage, excellent fruit and freshness and with firm tannins, still has a lot in reserve, very good persistence and length.
