1999 Leroy Bourgogne Pinot Noir

The colour of this Bourgogne is holding up quite well displaying a semi translucent dark red colour with a brick red hue. The nose displays some violet and dark cherry top notes followed by gamey leathery cedar like notes and a hint of spice. Light weight but still very much alive and well the palate possesses good length with an elegant flavour profile of dark cherry, spice and leathery game like qualities. Very fine grained soft perfectly integrated tannins with long aftertaste of dark cherry, leather, earth and spice.
Drink over the next 2-3 years (2011-2014).
Alc 13.0%
