Lot #88. Domaine Leroy Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Boudots 1996

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 96 WA.
"This light-colored wine is among the finest Nuits to have graced my palate. An amazingly elegant, floral, and blueberry, cherry, stone, chocolate, as well as rose-filled nose warns the palate of the impending pleasures to follow. This full-bodied, velvety-textured, and sublimely proportioned wine offers layer upon layer of candied blackberries, cherries, assorted dried fruits, as well as a seductively supple and lively personality. Even though it comes across as luscious and forward, it has a firm structure that is difficult to perceive through the loads of super-ripe fruit." Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate #118, Aug 1998
Provenance: The Nantais Cellar
Notes: Very lightly scuffed capsule, very lightly scuffed vintage neck tag, nicked and lightly scuffed label, #00702
