Domaine Leroy's greatest Nuits St.-Georges made in 1988 is the Nuits St.-Georges Les Boudots. The huge, roasted, plummy bouquet suggests sensational extract character and sur maturite. In the mouth, this wine has spectacular depth, richness, and layers of fruit. The acidity is sound, and the balance is virtually perfect. This rich, concentrated, lavishly endowed wine should drink beautifully over the next 15 or so years. The 1988 vintage attests to a remarkably auspicious start for the new Domaine Leroy in Vosne-Romanee.
