Details
Clos de la Roche--Vintage 1990
Côte de Nuits, Domaine Leroy
Levels: less than 0.5cm; signs of old overfill seepage, pristine labels
"An extremely ripe, beautifully full and complex nose manages to just avoid being over the top and leads to tannic, spicy and very rich full-bodied flavors of exceptionally good length. The aromas and flavors are entirely fresh and while they are no longer primary, neither have they passed into a entirely secondary phase. This is a big wine of impressive size and weight though it clearly is not one of nuance or finesse. It's still on the way up and probably will not peak for another 5 to 7 years." BH Apr 16, 2004
