WA: 91 Drink Date: 2010 - 2020
The Leroy 2007 Pommard Les Vignots combines a striking salinity and red meatiness with almost crystalline purity of red fruits – strawberry, red currant – and sheer refreshment such as one seldom encounters in this vintage or at this address. Tender in fruit and silken in texture, this holds an irresistible immediate appeal, yet in addition to its sense of carnality it exhibits chalk, salt, iodine, and peat in its long, savory, saliva-inducing finish. I would anticipate its remaining rewarding for at least 8-10 years.
