Tasting Notes

94-96
Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Feb 12
The 2010 Clos de la Roche is a marvelous, complete wine. Ahuge, extroverted bouquet leads to exuberant fruit. This is a decidedly flashy, exuberant wine bursting with energy. Layers of fruit blossom in all directions as the wine saturates every corner of the palate in stunning style. The textured, enveloping finish leaves a long, lasting impression well beyond this tasting.
