Product Description
1978 Leroy Vosne Romanee - Burghound - Tasted: May 22, 2009: (from a recent Leroy cellar release; with thanks to Dr. Reed Day). Bricked completely through to the center. Despite the total bricking| there is still a sense of freshness to the wonderfully spicy and expressive nose that is now largely dominated by sous bois-infused aromas and this sense of vibrancy continues onto the minerally and beautifully detailed flavors that finish with first rate complexity and excellent length. If there is a nit, it's that the is a very subtle touch of dryness that does not pose a problem over the next few years but probably will in time. This is a really impressive effort that is very Vosne in character. Tasted three times with consistent results.
