Description
Clos de la Roche 2003Leroy
ssos due to overfill, #00218
Bottle (1)
"Here we have a completely different expression because while there is a soaring nose of dense ripe fruit aromas, there is also wonderful freshness plus background notes of earth, leather, tea and a very subtle animale note that rivals the RSV for sheer breadth of complexity. The sweet, round, lush and punchy flavors can't match the Musigny for raw size but this is decidedly more classic in style with a bit better precision and overall finesse yet I must point out that this is also an exceptionally powerful wine that may possess the longest finish of any wine here today. A great Leroy Clos de la Roche and one that should live for years." (95 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound #17, Jan 2005)
"Bright ruby-red. Knockout nose combines strawberry, underbrush, minerals and stone; like a fully ripe essence of Clos de la Roche. Superconcentrated and sweet, with the wine's distinct minerality giving it class and definition. Superripe but not over the top. Silky and full; a nobler version of the superb Combottes. Finishes tannic, minerally and very long, with a lingering juiciness. Captures the great potential of this vintage." (95 pts. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Apr 2005)
