Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 17
Bright, dark red, but without the ruby tones of some of the Lucien Le Moine '14s. Musky, slightly reduced aromas of raspberry, strawberry, plum, meat, dried rose petal and underbrush. Wonderfully rich, dense and saline if still a bit reduced. This concentrated, seriously tactile wine finishes with terrific palate-staining length but will need eight to ten years in the cellar to really express itself.
Drinking Date: 2026 - 2038

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 28 Apr 16
The 2014 Clos Saint Denis Grand Cru has a withdrawn bouquet at first, only gradually unfolding with light cranberry leaf, bay leaf and strawberry scents, a cold stone note emerging later. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, quite focused and poised, although I would like to see more weight and body develop on the finish. It seems to have stage fright compared to the Clos de la Roche.
Drinking Date: 2020 - 2040
