Grands Echezeaux 1969 Leroy
Pale and beautiful.
Strawberries and mulch on the nose. Burgundian barnyard that gets heady cocoay and perfumey.
Ripe, candied strawberries with beeswax, a touch of rosemary and the most silky delicate texture that hides this tight, zingy citrus. Juicy still. Lovely length.
