Leroy Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru - 1997 (750ml) - Damaged Label American IPA focused and complex96 Points, Wine Advocate: "I was surprised to see a hint of amber on the edge of the otherwise medium to dark ruby colored 1997 Clos de Vougeot. Its opulent full bodied personality is crammed with sweet red cherries, tar, blackberry jam, juniper berries, and cloves. Its extraordinarily long finish displays copious round, ripe, and supple tannins."
