2009 Leroy Bourgogne Rouge

To go with the fried rice at home today, I decided to pull out a bottle of Burgundy.     Today's wine is a bottle of 2009 Bourgogne Rouge from famous producer, Leroy. 

The wine has a soft pleasant nose of red fruits.  After an hour's aeration, the tannins of this young wine had softened perfectly.  It was light-bodied, although I should say that the concentration was stronger than I had expected of a bottle from such a basic appellation.   It is a good companion with lightly flavored food such as the fried rice I had today.
