    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Chantal Remy, Clos de la Roche, Grand Cru, 2012

    Suave and seductive, intense, lush pretty fruit character. Generous, opulent round floral fruit notes of strawberry, griotte, cherry and rose. Hugely peristant, intense flavours. A beauty. Clos de la Roche is a warm terroir that produces bold, opulent wines.

    The 2016 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a glorious and extremely complex bouquet: cranberry, raspberry, crushed stone and rose petal aromas bursting from the glass all with exquisite delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, gentle grip, and a slight confit note (perhaps from a batch of over-ripe berries?) It retains ample freshness and tension on the finish. This could have been a profound wine, but it just falls short of that. Still deeply impressive. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.
