Tasting Notes

93-95
Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 14 Jan 21
The 2019 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru opens in the glass with rich aromas of berry fruit, loamy soil, peonies, dark chocolate and cedar. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and elegantly muscular, it's generous and enveloping, with velvety tannins and fine depth at the core. Bright and lively, it's another wine that marries maturity with freshness.

Vinous Neal Martin - 03 Feb 26
The 2019 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a lovely bouquet that has become earthier with bottle age, touches of tea leaf infusing the red berry fruit. The palate has abundant freshness on the entry, a fine lattice of tannins, elegant and understated compared to Rousseau's other cuvées this vintage. Perhaps it has just lost a bit of stuffing on the finish compared to its barrel showing. This is ready to be drunk now and should drink well over the next 15 to 20 years.

Cask sample. Not as expressive on the nose as the Gevreys today. Smooth and savoury on the palate but a bit restrained. It’s all there but needs a bit of time. Just a little bitter on the end. (No reduction, unlike usually.) (JR)
