Tasting notes
The 2009 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a lucid hue with light bricking on the rim. It has an intriguing bouquet with a touch of menthol and hoisin, almost Bandol-like in style. Some brettanomyces perhaps? The palate is medium-bodied, harmonious and savory. The oak is just a little more pronounced and occludes some of the terroir expression on the finish. Yet unlike some of its peers in this vintage, this one improves and gains elegance in the glass. (NM)

The 2009 Clos de la Roche wafts from the glass with hints of tobacco, wild flowers and cherries. This is an elegant, refined Clos de la Roche long on finesse and pure sensuality. The gorgeous, finely-knit finish leaves a lasting impression.
