This is without a doubt the absolute best wine from this cru. The color is more or less translucent and in no way lets on that this wine could be accused of sensorial terrorism. The bouquet, in fact, is incredibly explosive with an almost painful intensity. Here the ‘Leroy style’ is amplified to the maximum with notes of incense and oriental spice standing out and accompanied by spicy sensations that only Madame is capable of bringing out in her best wines. The mouthfeel is in a way esoteric because after the explosion that occurs on the palate, its consistency becomes almost impalpable, with an epic retro-aroma and the memory of an supernatural drop.
