Description
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Pierre Rovani
The ruby-colored 1994 Clos de la Roche has a velvety nose of spices, orange rinds, cedar, and flowers. It opens with broad, impressively concentrated red cherries, exotic woods, and minerals, then reveals a rustic personality in the finish. This medium-to-full-bodied wine remains firm and highly structured, yet its flavor profile is already showing signs of evolution. Drink it over the next 5-6 years while its outstanding fruit still holds the balance.
