Tasting notes
The 2021 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has an expressive bouquet, more complex than the Clos des Lambrays and again demonstrating clever use of whole cluster that is proportional to the fruit. Fine delineation. The palate is beautifully balanced with filigree tannins. Lightly peppered, tensile with a linear and quite saline/black tea-infused finish, this retains the classical style of the reds in this vintage and conveys a sense of class. Recommended. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Clos-de-la-Roche Grand Cru comes from five lieux-dits. This was slightly more reduced than the Clos Saint-Denis, dark berry fruit, briary; a faint touch of seaweed emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-sculpted tannins, harmonious and tensile, again, discretely building with a transparent, lightly peppered finish that lingers in the mouth. Excellent.
