Leroy Nuits Saint Georges Aux Allots 1996 750mL

This medium-to-dark ruby-colored wine exhibits scents of cassis bathed in mocha and chocolate. Its full-bodied, velvety-textured, and bright character is awash in blueberries dusted with confectioners sugar, fresh herbs, candied red cherries, stones, and a myriad of oaky spices. This gem also possesses a long, supple, and soft finish. - Robert Parker, tasted (8/1998)
