A still quite fresh and impressively complex nose is composed by mature green apple, pear, petrol and wet stone. There is equally superb complexity to the still hugely powerful big-bodied, unctuous and even slightly oily flavors that still manage to seem as though you're rolling rocks around in your mouth on the strikingly persistent and palate coating finish. This is a massive wine, particularly for the vintage, that is seductively textured, concentrated and muscular yet it remains precise, pure and balanced with a finale that seems to go on and on without end. For my taste this has arrived at its peak though it should easily be capable of holding her for years to come.

The Corton Charlemagne was the only Domaine Leroy wine not declassified in 2004, which is in general considered to be a more successful white wine rather than red wine vintage. This remains impressively fresh in colour, with a green-gold hue, and at first a rather closed bouquet. This changes however as the wine fills out, developing a much more engaging bouquet with the minerals well connected to a light reductiveness. After an hour the flesh develops further to make this an exciting and fulfilling wine approaching but not yet at its apogee.
