Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2015 Richebourg Grand Cru from Domaine Leroy is an extraordinary wine that captures all the lavishness and power of this great grand cru, soaring from the glass with a deep bouquet of ripe black fruits, exotic spice, licorice and smoked duck. On the palate, the wine is huge and multidimensional, with extraordinary concentration and mid-palate depth, vibrant and full of energy despite its imposing scale. Such is the intensity of its finish that neither swallowing nor expectoration have any immediate impact: it's as if the wine's still there. While this will never have the complexity or elegance of the Romanée-Saint-Vivant, it represents the essence of Richebourg.
Burghound
This is the first wine to display more than a soupçon of wood influence though it's still sufficiently subtle to easily allow the ultra-spicy and floral aromas of ripe black cherry and plum to be appreciated. The muscular yet seductively textured broad-shouldered flavors possess ample minerality on the imposingly structured finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This is a really big wine and one that should see its 50th birthday in fine form.

Vinous
Usually, much more of a brute, in 2015 the Leroy Richebourg is a wine of total and exquisite finesse. The flavors are bright, precise and beautifully lifted by the wine’s tannic spine. The 2015 is an especially sensual, rapturous Richebourg that will leave readers weak at the knees. Above all else, the 2015 is incredibly polished and harmonious for such a young Richebourg.
