Domaine Leroy
Savigny-lès-Beaune Pinot Noir
Savigny-lès-Beaune, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Alas a village wine from 1985 that had me wishing upon the day past long ago where I might have been. Still drinking it on Mom's Day with my wife Cindy. Garnet color purity with straight to the heart from nose to tummy. Dry red fruits and the scent of the soil with life giving spirits. This is why I drink Burgundy.

May 8th, 2016Slight protruding cork but that's often the case Madam Leroy loves to fill wines well into the neck. Cork was perfect and smelled fresh...wine was in great shape for an 1985 year that many thought best for decades as of then. Sweet core and bloomed right off...dropped off in 15 minutes but enjoy just lovely expression of a 1985 Red Burg! Sammy Hagar loved the wine too at his El Paseo where we pooped it.

30 years and they are still together, must be the wine. I guess I should have drank more before my wife became my ex. Rich cherry, cloudy with sediment, turning into port before my eyes.

Suitable for my final dinner before departing NYC; dried tart cherries, earth, minerals and a bit of heaven.
