Note di degustazione
The Clos de la Roche is a real stand-out success in 2017 from the Georges Lignier Grand Crus. Starting with spice and floral scents, a great mid palate dollop of concentrated fruit and finishing with exotic tea and spice flavours. The nose is complex with an array of spices, lavender, clove and a rich red berry scent. Ripe juicy red and blueberry fruit on the palate with great mid palate concentration and vibrant racy acidity with complex exotic tea-like flavours and aromas on the long finish. Tasted on two separate occasions, once at the winery and once in London with consistent tasting notes.

Barrel sample. Hailed. 30% whole bunch. 40% new oak. More protected from cold winds than Clos St-Denis. Lightish cherry red. An aroma that is restrained but draws you in. Dark-red fruit, peppery, mineral and a little chalky. On the palate, really sinewy and almost but not quite lean, direct and precise and very fresh. The opposite of gourmand but satisfying in a health-promoting way. No fat. Much more in finesse than charm. Very long. (JH)
