Note di degustazione
The 2003 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru from Armand Rousseau offers attractive minty red berry fruit on the nose, laced with pressed rose petals and leather aromas, and perhaps just a little brettanomyces lurking in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, smooth and velvety in texture, supported by decent structure underneath. It is missing some complexity vis-à-vis other vintages, although there is some grip on the meaty finish. Fine. Tasted at Sarah Marsh’s 2003/2004 tasting in London.

Pale ruby. Smudgy colour. Smudgy, interesting aromas – lots of them! Good freshness and sweetness but (just) not in excess. Very easy to like now. Sweet orange-juice flavours. Lots of punch. And still some fine tannin in reserve. Very long. (JR)
Good full red. Complex aromas of black raspberry, espresso, mocha and underbrush. Dense, thick and concentrated; a step up in size from the foregoing wines. And yet this big boy shows a lovely restrained sweetness and comes across as round and not especially tannic. Long and lush on the aftertaste.
