96 AM. "An intensely floral nose exhibits a striking panoply of aromas that include anise, red berries, soy, plum and rose petals. There is stunning intensity and simply terrific delineation to the mineral-driven and quite powerful flavors that explode on the palate staining and massively long finish. This usually takes a backseat to the Leroy Beaux Monts but not in 2009. Indeed when I commented upon this to Mme Leroy she told me that it's possible that this is the best Brûlées that she has ever made and I would concur." Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, Jan 2012 |
