Leroy Clos de la Roche 1995 750mL Slightly Wine Stained Label Rubbed Capsule

The '95 Clos de la Roche is a full on sensory assault with its gamey, earthy and softly perfumed, incredibly seductive black pinot fruit that leads to deep yet finely textured, powerful, wonderfully sappy flavors of such mouth coating richness and length that one cannot help but be moved. However it is an open question as to whether all of this drama in the glass will appeal to everyone or not because if there is a nit, it's that this is so structured and powerful that is could be accused of lacking grace. In short, this is a serious, firmly structured, dense wine of magnificent proportions that will live for years but a wine with a sufficiently particular style that it may not appeal to everyone.
