Nuits St. Georges Au Bas de Combe 1996 Domaine Leroy

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (90)

This medium-to-dark ruby-colored wine has a feminine, floral, and blackberry-infused nose as well as a medium-to-full-bodied, structured, foursquare, and refined character. It is powerful and velvety-textured yet highly-detailed. Deeply sweet black fruits and minerals are found in its precise and persistent flavor profile.

Winespectator (90)

Not the concentration of the best Nuits, but very appealing with its smoke, petrol, green olive character, sinewy structure, vibrant acidity and impressively long finish.
