The 2014 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is 50% whole cluster fruit. It has a denser and more opaque bouquet compared to the 2015 Clos Saint Denis -- blueberry and cassis fruit, all with a tight leash on. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannin on the entry; there is blackberry and boysenberry, and plenty of salinity here with a mineral-driven finish that leaves the tongue a tingling long after it has departed. This is very serious and deserves a few years in the cellar. Drink 2019-2035.

(50% vendange entier ; from estate parcels planted in 1990 and 1947, plus some purchased fruit from vines planted in 1965): Bright, deep red with ruby highlights; beautiful color. Deep aromas of blackberry, boysenberry, violet, smoked meat, animal fur and earth. Plush, smooth and concentrated; packed with chewy purple fruit and violet flavors. This fleshy, deep grand cru really spreads out to saturate the entire mouth on the back end, with tactile tannins contributing to an impression of vibrancy.

Once again notes of wood and menthol are present on the intensely earthy and gamy aromas of red currant, violet and discreet spice elements. The medium weight plus flavors are bigger, richer and more powerful but notably less fine than those of the CSD while possessing a velvety, even lush mouth feel, all wrapped in a highly seductive, balanced and very firmly structured finale. This too should age well but be approachable after only 7 to 8 years of age. Drink 92-94.

Bright crimson. Bitter cherries and polished tannins. It’s good and vital though not transcendental. Pretty powerful on the back palate though. Then it just finishes a little suddenly. A serious long-term contender. (JR)
